Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mark Mazaheri" data-source="post: 241363" data-attributes="member: 5087">The 2019 ND Legislative session starts in a few weeks and as sportsmen, we all need to get involved in the process so we can help preserve our state's outdoor heritage.The ND Sportsmens Etree was established in 2000 to help keep people informed about issues impacting resident sportsmen.  Over the years it has proven to be a useful tool in providing detailed information on upcoming bills in the Legislature.  To sign up, please send your full name and ND legislative district to <a href="mailto:NDsportsmensetree@gmail.com">NDsportsmensetree@gmail.com</a>    This information will NEVER be used for anything other than the etree.A couple things to remember as this thread grows over the next couple months:1) ND resident sportsmen are the primary focus.2) because of time constraints, I will not be able to address every reply that is posted.  I recognize your right to disagree.3) most importantly:  WE NEED YOU in order to be effective.  The people who want to decrease your access and minimize your rights are actively working against you.  If you don't help us fight back, they could win.There are at least two issues which will likely surface during the session;First, a number of sources are reporting that the ND Stockmen's Association is preparing to bring up the "Trespass Law" again.  A change to our current law would have a devastating impact to hunting in our state.  Lt. Governor Sanford tells me that he is not advocating for the change, but only time will tell.Deer licensing is another issue that will likely be brought up.  I was told that a couple central ND legislators want a bill that would provide increased preference for deer-gun applicants over age 65-70.  As with a similar bill last session; this concept comes from greedy, self-serving older hunters who have already enjoyed decades of good deer hunting.  If anyone gets preference, it should be the younger hunters. (for the record, I'm 53)thanks,maz</blockquote>
