Alert:Vermont Lead Ammo Ban Hearing

** UPDATE 5/7/15 **

H.297 & H.460 failed to pass out of committee!
They have been returned to the “wall” for this year…

On another great note, H.210 the “Silencer” Bill passed out of Committee by UNANIMOUS vote the same day!

Chalk up THREE more wins for firearm rights!

Thanks for your help!

On Wednesday, the House F&W Committee is taking testimony on H.460 the bill to ban lead ammo for hunting.

The end of the legislative session is rapidly approaching. This is when the horse trading in the state house really picks up.
A committee can pass out a bill this year so it is first in line for action next year. If passed long do think it will stay just hunting?
