PUBLIC LANDS
Our public lands are not for sale. We support appropriate land transfers that increase access and make management of our public lands easier. We do not support whole-sale transfers of public land to the state or private entities.
PUBLIC WILDLIFE
We do not support the privatization of our wildlife through “transferrable landowner tags,” or the monetization of wildlife for private profit.
SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT
We uphold the North American Model of Wildlife Management, and believe biologists, through the Game & Fish Department and Commission, should make wildlife management decisions, not politicians.
Hunters, anglers, trappers, wildlife biologists, and all members of the public should understand the political and electoral forces that directly affect our ability to participate in outdoor traditions and wildlife conservation. By increasing awareness and education, we can help shape the 2026 election cycle so that candidates who support public lands, public wildlife, and science-based management have the strongest opportunity to succeed.
Decisions about public lands, wildlife access, and conservation policy are made through political and electoral processes. When people who rely on and care about these resources understand how those decisions are shaped, they are better equipped to engage thoughtfully and responsibly. Education helps ensure that future leaders value science, conservation, and public access - protecting outdoor opportunities and healthy ecosystems for current and future generations.
