HCO2195 By Ellis. Authorizes the PA Attorney General to enter into reciprocal agreements with other states allowing Disabled Veteran Annual Fishing and Hunting licenses to be recognized and valid.
* July 24, 2015 11:16 AM * Rep. Brian Ellis * Co-sponsor-Legislation to provide for Disabled Veterans Annual Hunting * and Fishing License Reciprocity * In the near future, I plan to introduce legislation that will amend * Title 30 (Fish & Boat Code) and Title 34 (Game Code) of the * Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, authorizing the Pennsylvania * Attorney General to enter into reciprocal agreements with other states * allowing Disabled Veteran Annual Fishing and Hunting licenses issued by * the Commonwealth and each state in agreement to be recognized * reciprocally and valid in any state participating in such an agreement. * * * * The legislation will require that participating states reciprocally * recognize valid, lawfully issued Disabled Veteran Annual Hunting and * Fishing licenses, provided the Attorney General has determined that the * hunting and fishing laws of the states are similar to the hunting and * fishing laws of this Commonwealth. * * * * I believe this will be of great benefit to our disabled veterans who * gave so much of themselves in service to us, and help encourage more * travel by disabled veteran residents while attracting tourism and * sportsmen's dollars to the Commonwealth from out-of-state disabled * hunters and anglers.
