Call to Action Save Fish & Game Commissioner Richards
Anti-hunting groups, led by the Humane Society of the United States, have instigated a campaign to remove Fish and Game Commission President, Dan Richards from his seat on the Commission. Why? Because he went on a LEGAL mountain lion hunt at the Flying B Ranch in Idaho and successfully harvested a lion! The controversy broke out when a photograph of Richards holding the dead cat was recently published in Western Outdoor News. Anti-hunting groups are questioning Richards judgment in hunting a lion out-of-state even though it is completely legal to do so in Idaho!
The battle has intensified, and now a letter has been sent from the State Assembly, signed by 40 Democrat members, demanding that Richards resign. The legislature does have the ability to remove a sitting commissioner through the Resolution process with a simple majority vote by both the Assembly and Senate. A Joint Resolution could be proposed at any time.
Commissioner Richards is a dedicated advocate for hunters and anglers in California and he needs your help NOW! This attack against Commissioner Richards is a punitive strike against all sportsmen in California! Please join CRPA in supporting Commissioner Richards by ACTING NOW!
