Action Needed on April Fools Day - How Fitting! On April 12 spokespersons from several anti-hunting organizations and about 150 of their supporters will be in Albany to meet with 212 state legislators and/or their staff. This is the Humane Lobby Day which is held every spring at the state house. We need to make three impressions: 1) Awareness about Humane Lobby Day among the NY Bird Hunting Community, and foster a culture which responds to HLD this year and every year. Remember: If everyone in your bird hunting network does not know what HLD is one year from now, you did not work hard enough! 2) Show the Legislature that we are organizing, and bird hunting is no longer going to be the "Sacrifice Issue" to appease anti-hunters in NY. Specifically, regarding the discussions on HLD about dove hunting and the state pheasant stocking program. 3) Tell legislators that we are seeking a dove hunting season and want the state pheasant stocking program protected, if not expanded! Action to Take: Read the accompanying report and write your state senate and assembly representative today. Foster awareness about HLD and persuade other bird hunters to take the same action. There is share buttons embedded in the article which will make this easier for some of you, especially if you use social media. http://nydovehunting.weebly.com/humane-lobby-day.html
