Help Ban Wildlife Killing Contests on Federal Public Lands!

Voice Your Support for H.R. 7398 ~ the Prohibit Wildlife Killing Contests Act of 2022

Earlier this year, we asked you to contact your Representative in support of H.R.7398, which would prohibit wildlife killing contests across America. Now we’re asking you to contact your Representative again if they serve on the House Committee on Natural Resources (HNRC).

The bill has a hearing in the Water, Oceans, and Wildlife Subcommittee of HNRC at 9 a.m. ET this Thursday, June 16. The hearing will be livestreamed on YouTube. Public comment will be accepted for two weeks.

Urge your Representative on the HNRC to support H.R. 7398!

Here’s what you can do: 

1. Contact your U.S. Representative if they are on HNRC to ask them to support and cosponsor H.R. 7398.
