Wyoming: Pro-Hunting Reform Passes House Committee and Awaits Final Approval by the H

Today, the state House Agriculture, State and Public Lands and Water Resources Committee voted 6 to 3 to repeal the state prohibition on hunting with sound suppressors (which are additionally regulated under federal law) while providing additional penalties for those who use them illegally. Representatives Dan Zwonitzer (R-43), Rita Campbell (R-34), and Stan Blake (D-39) voted against this bill. Last week, the state Senate voted 23 to 7 to pass Senate File 132, introduced by Senator Ogden Driskill (R-01).  This bill is now eligible for a final vote of approval in the House, which could be held as early as tomorrow.  This is your last chance to contact your state Representative and politely encourage his or her support of this common sense hunting reform measure.
