Conference committee should be tomorrow. Hopefully hey follow Rep. Flynn's passionate floor speech yesterday and restore the bill back to it's original form.
In other news, HB 5, which contains the full authority to spend funds on land acquisition for programs such as Habitat Montana, Upland Game Bird Enhancement Program, Migratory Bird Fund and the Governor's tags was passed 84-16 on concurrence to the senate amendments. The vote should hold on third, and if it does, then we should thank the Legislature for restoring the ability of Fish, Wildlife and Parks to implement the law as written and move forward with more WMA's and strategic purchases of land. This will be one of the more significant victories for hunters and anglers this session if it sails through on third reading tomorrow.
