Sounds like something headed for an Obunga veto...............

Zer0 will never sign this in his final 300 days anti gun frenzy.
Sets up rules for film crews of 5 people or less on public lands. Prohibits a ban on filming and photograph taking.
= = =
What if the filming is anti-hunter activist? Need to remove the bag limit on them.
It’s meaningless posturing designed to score points with the conservative base, when there’s no likelihood of it overcoming a veto.
Pass it again next year under a Republican president, and it will have meaning.
Why not include universal ccw reciprocity?

If the hunter isn’t doing anything wrong then what’s to fear? If anything it’s an opportunity to inform and educate the pantywaists about the realities of hunting and responsible land and wildlife management.
“If the hunter isn’t doing anything wrong then what’s to fear?”
IIRC, out East they had protest groups going out to public hunting lands and scaring away the wildife. Nothing like a bunch of yahoos running around screaming and yelling to scare off the deer.
But this is obviously a rule to allow hunting parties to take photos and film their activities. Sounds like while they were trying to prevent Hollywood from filming movies for free, they included Joe Blow from taking a photo of his trophy elk as well.

Of course if they didn’t do this you would still be complaining.
Ah, thanks. I think chasing away wildlife is a different thing than just making video of someone hunting. Photographers should have the same right on public land as hunters.
But they might want to wear blaze orange if they’re going shooting pictures where other people are shooting game.

Force the veto, force the rats to run for reelection after having voted against it. Force the presidential candidates to justify their position on it.
YES.
Ha ha some parts of the year we put on orange to walk the dog. If the dog were any larger we would put orange on it.
Wann bet the DiC will veto?
the girls camo doesn’t really match the terrain does it
Sounds like a rolling back of backdoor tyrannical control. The Counterfeit in Chief will veto.
The anti- hunters scare the game, get in front of the hunters, broadcast loud noises, and generally interfere with legal hunting.
Many states have right to hunt laws, to try to stop this.
I wonder if they could claim they are a ‘film crew’?
