Pennsylvania: Governor Signs Legislation Lifting Sunday Hunting Restrictions

Wednesday, July 9, 2025

On Wednesday, July 9, Governor Josh Shapiro signed House Bill 1431, lifting restrictions on Sunday hunting and bringing Pennsylvania in line with the vast majority of states.

HB 1431 preserves Pennsylvania’s sporting heritage by increasing opportunities for hunters across the Commonwealth, acting as a vital hunter recruitment tool that will help attract the next generation of sportsmen and women. With time at a premium for working families, allowing this additional weekend day is critical to create opportunities for young Pennsylvanians to be introduced to hunting and begin a lifelong appreciation for Pennsylvania’s outdoor traditions.
