Oppose the Bill
 

I oppose the bill. Hunting game with hounds has been passed down through generations and it’s the only form of hunting where the game knows it is being pursued and has a fair chance. Hound hunters have done more for the local communities and people in need than any still hunter that has walked the woods. We are not the bad guys and want to keep the heritage alive through future generations.
