Senator John Hoeven, a member of the Senate Energy Committee, today announced that the committee has passed bipartisan sportsmen's legislation. The legislation reauthorizes important conservation programs, improves access to federal lands and helps to boost the outdoor recreation economy.
"Hunting, fishing and other outdoor recreation activities are an important part of our state's culture and economy," said Hoeven. "The Sportsmen's Act will help improve opportunities for our sportsmen and women, while also helping to grow this important sector of our economy."
