Virginia Senate approves Sunday hunting on private land
Virginia lawmakers expressed optimism as the Senate passed a Sunday hunting bill allowing private land hunts after a 29 to 1 vote. The measure, backed by Sen Frank Wagner and supported by delegates like Philip Puckett and James Wooden, moves to the House for crossover consideration. Supporters say it aids workers with limited weekday hunting opportunities, while opponents warn of safety and other outdoor activity concerns. The bill applies only to hunts on private property with landowner permission and aligns with anticipated House action.
