Amendment would make hunting and fishing a right in Iowa
A House subcommittee advanced a proposed constitutional amendment to enshrine hunting, fishing, trapping, and wildlife harvesting as rights subject to reasonable laws. The measure needs approval in two successive General Assemblies and voter ratification. Critics worry it could hinder wildlife regulation and nonlethal methods, while supporters argue it protects access in largely farmed Iowa.
