Dear Senate District 17 NRA Member:
The Texas Senate could consider NRA-backed Senate Joint Resolution 22, sponsored by state Senator Brandon Creighton (R-Conroe), early next week. SJR 22 proposes an amendment to the Texas constitution that establishes an individual right to hunt, fish and harvest wildlife in the Lone Star State. It would ensure that wildlife conservation and management decisions continue to be based on sound science in order to preserve Texas' hunting heritage for generations to come and to protect it against future attacks from well-funded, anti-hunting organizations.
Not only are hunting and fishing deep-rooted in Texas culture, they have a major economic impact on the state. According to the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation, the Lone Star State's hunters and anglers spend $4.1 billion annually and support 65,993 jobs. To sign up in support of Texas' Right to Hunt and Fish, click here.
Please call your State Senator, Joan Huffman, at (512) 463-0117 or send an email by clicking here and politely urge support of SJR 22 when it comes before the Texas Senate for consideration.
Sincerely,
NRA Institute for Legislative Action
