Minnesota Senate Seeking to Ban Lead Shot!

Friday, March 21, 2008

Introduced by State Senator Satveer Chaudhary (DFL-50), the Senate Omnibus Game and Fish Bill, Senate Fill 3385, contains a harmful provision that would ban the use of lead shot for hunting small game on public lands in Minnesota.  Lead alternatives are extremely expensive and many have reduced capabilities, which would only increasing wounding rates of game animals. 

Please call members of the Senate Finance Committee and urge them to oppose banning lead shot and strike Article 3, Section 59 from SF3385 before it’s to late.
