Casey answered my call seemed like a nice fellow, rather mono tone in his speech

Anyone can call, in order to get full buy in from both House and Senate we had to go to 54, they liked it because it matched Canada's regs and the other emerging regs across the country. Please Call and leave a message.

Here is the language as close as I have right now, the only changes will be to the number for the lines.

Is there anything else in the bill or is that all of it?

I hope they you get the calls and support you need. I'd call but as a DNR employee I don't get involved with politics beyond going to the polls during elections. Moreso a personal policy keeping me from doing/saying something stupid!

Good luck, hope it gets signed.

I think the message service is turned off or full, call back tomorrow between 8:00am and 5:00 PM. Thanks for all the support; I think he will get it tomorrow or Thursday at the latest. They always appreciate knowing they are signing into law something that is supported. The other thing I feel is a big win in the bill is they are going to have grants for High School Trap shooting facilities. Its the fastest growing H.S. sport in MN.. Disabled Veterans who were disabled in service get to fish for free as well as deer hunt and small game. Quail feasibility work for reintroduction and management. And a fishing pier on Long Lake in Stearns county. Nothing too ugly.

62-0 senate vote on game&fish conference committee report and 129-1 house vote. The waiting is killing me. We need Dayton to sign this thing. Keep calling if you haven't.

If this isn't the most updated version of the bill, it's close.

Haven't verified but heard the gov signed the game & fish bill today. 54" minimum starting next year. Excellent news. Thanks to John U, Aaron, and all the others who helped wrangle this deal.

Its done Propster.

 The Governor signed the bill today. If not for your support it would have never happened. In the end all but 1-2 legislators supported us. The support of Rep David Dill, Sen Tom Bakk, Sen Carrie Rudd Sen Matt Schmidt and most importantly Sen John Hoffman made this happen with your calls and emails. This is incredible. Please Call or E-mail and thank these key people for making this happen. It was dead without them.   

 Senator Thomas M. Bakk (651) 296-8881
