Hunters Back Conservation Drive Through Pittman Robertson Act
Clark Webster argues that American hunters have funded wildlife preservation through the Pittman Robertson Act. Since 1965 and 1987 they supported an excise tax on firearms and ammo, raising over $300 million for state lands, research, and refuges. Five cents per dollar funds ranges, lands, science, and administration benefiting public hunting and non hunted wildlife.
