Published: , in Outdoor News
Both chambers of congress rallied together in late September to fix language from the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act of 2022 that allowed the U.S. Department of Education to pull certain federal funding from schools that have hunter education and archery and other shooting programs.
The House of Representatives pushed through the Protecting Hunting Heritage and Education Act (H.R. 5110), a bipartisan bill with a near unanimous vote of 424-1. A bipartisan group of senators pushed through its companion bill, the Defending Hunters’ Education Act (S. 2735), which unanimously passed the Senate.
