Anglers: Your Help is Needed Urgently

To our angler friends: Your help is desperately needed.

The New Jersey Outdoor Alliance represents the interests of anglers, hunters and trappers in Trenton. On Monday two bills that will be voted on and national “anti” groups HSUS, Sierra, etc. have gathered their “national” powers to defeat them. They are desperate to maintain their grip over us. They don't want us to experience our rightful freedoms to fish, hunt and trap.

These “antis” are panicked and enraged and have mobilized to keep us in our place. They are calling personnel from all over the country to browbeat our legislators into defeating the bills. Make no mistake - this is a culture war. A war waged by people that need to control the way others live their lives. It is all of the ugliness of prejudice - it is a prejudice against outdoorsmen and outdoorswomen under a veneer of self-righteousness.

If we are ALL to get out from under their grip we must act NOW. We must flood our legislators with emails over the weekend and call their offices Monday morning.

The bills are A595 and A1669. They allow bow hunting on Sundays (only 14 Sundays and the other brings the bow perimeter to 150’.)

If these bills pass it will help the NJOA to pave the way for two fishing bills we are fighting for (Traps Off reefs and Hooked on Fishing Not On Drugs.)
The passage of these bills is nearly important to the fishing community as it is the hunting community.

Your help is urgently requested. Please email your assemblypersons and simple write: Please support Bills A595 and A1669.

Thank you.

Here's how to email:

To email your two assemblypersons click the following link. Find for your town. Then click on your district for your assemblypersons. Then click on your assemblyperson's NAME. It will take you to their home page and there's a link that says "Contact your Legislator." Click it.

Take down their phone numbers while you are on their home page and begin calling their offices Monday morning.>>

Do it in the name of the mentors that introduced you to the outdoors, do it for yourselves, do it for future generations - whatever your reasons just do it! You won't get another chance!>>

Thank you

Anthony P. Mauro. S
Chair
