Some Hoosier help me out here. I’m new to the state and not familiar with the constitution of Indiana. I don’t understand what this is asking me. I may abstain because I don’t get it.

A “YES” is preferred by conservatives.

Maybe this will help...

https://ballotpedia.org/Indiana_Right_to_Hunt_and_Fish,_Public_Question_1_(2016)

The Indiana Right to Hunt and Fish Amendment, also known as Public Question 1, is on the November 8, 2016, ballot in Indiana as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment.

A “yes” vote supports amending the state constitution to include the right to hunt, fish, and harvest wildlife.

A “no” vote opposes amending the state constitution to include the right to hunt, fish, and harvest wildlife.

Question 1 would permit the constitutional right to hunt, fish, and trap to be subjected to regulations promoting wildlife conservation and management and preserving the future of hunting and fishing. Furthermore, public hunting and fishing would be the preferred method of wildlife management under the amendment.

The amendment would be added to the Indiana Bill of Rights.

Citizens of Kansas are voting on a similar right to hunt and fish amendment on November 8, 2016.

Basically, it makes hunting and fishing a Constitutional Right in the state.

Curtails the whims of judges and activists who are a-scared of guns and think furry critters are for looking at, not eating.
