I'm not sure how much traction it will get but I've seen both BHA and OHA share it. It could be an impactful piece of legislation to combat the whackadoodle IP3 that is being pushed.

I'll be reaching out to my representatives on it.

Thanks for sharing! I sent the form letter they provided, but will also be emailing my house rep directly in support of this HJR 5.

You beat me to posting this @FI460. I hope this isn’t as much of a long shot as I think it is. It would be a game-changer.

All Oregon hunters should be reaching out to the House Committee on Rules and their specific reps!

Indiana passed their state constitutional right to hunt and fish in 2016. I wonder how many states have passed such an amendment to date? Let’s go Oregon!

AP 2016 - Indiana passed a constitutional amendment to protect a Hoosier’s right to “hunt, fish, and harvest wildlife.” The Associate Press projects the amendment will pass with 80 percent of voters favoring, 20 percent opposing and 52 percent of precincts reporting.

Love to see this happen, I have zero faith in the body politic in the willamette Valley.

Lots of opposing testimony on the bill. A lot of support too, but given the gravity of what this could mean for Oregon hunters and anglers, there should be a lot more. There's got to be a better way to organize hunters and convince them to submit testimony on stuff like this...

There's still time to submit written testimony.
