Not familiar with it... maybe you guys in Arkansas can shed some light on it.

The Legislator is proposing to take the authority fo the Arkansas Game and Fish Commision away from the Commision and putting it in control of the Legislator.........HORRIBLE IDEA. This is aout money plain and simple. AGC does not need to be dependednt on the Legislator to babaysit it. What knowledge of conservation, ethics, etc do the lawmakers thik they have over the employees of the AGFC.

If you are an Arkansan, please email your Rep and ask them to vote against this amendment to the Constitution.

Then they'd have say on limits and such? My gosh. Haven't they made a mess of everything already.

Hope they don't succeed.

From my understanding(and it is little at best) the Legislator would be the puppetmaster and the AGFC the marianets. Moneys would be going into a general fund unstead of particular.......so money collected by Game and Fish could be used to build a road. Doesnt sound so bad.....but it is basically replacing one programw ith another at the Legislators call.

Bad idea, the state wants the money from the oil leases an wildlife managment areas. Problem is the land was abought with Pittman Ropbertson, dingle/johnson funds and that makes the AGFC lands and money untouchable by the rest of the state.
