Bipartisan Walz SHARE Act Passes House

Statement

Today, the Sportsmen's Heritage and Recreational (SHARE) Act, pro sportsmen's and sportswomen's legislation that will preserve and promote our outdoor hunting, fishing and conservation heritage, authored by Representatives Tim Walz (D-MN), Bob Latta (R-OH), Bennie Thompson (D-MS), and Robert Wittman (R-VA), passed the House of Representatives.

"As an avid outdoorsman, I'm proud of this historic legislation that will increase access to the outdoors and ensure our strong hunting heritage is preserved for generations to come," said Representative Tim Walz, Vice Chair of the Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus. "The SHARE Act is based upon one fact; sportsmen and women are some of our nation's most effective conservationists. This legislation will work to promote this simple fact by increasing access to the outdoors and funding common sense conservation practices."

The SHARE Act will ensure outdoor traditions are protected and advanced, and addresses some of the most pressing concerns of American hunters and recreational anglers.
