Tonight's legislative update begins in the House, where lawmakers unanimously passed a bill that would ease hunting and fishing restrictions on some Kentuckians.
House Bill 217, sponsored by Representative David Hale, would amend a new law just passed last year that requires landowners with less than five acres of property to be able to hunt and fish on their own land.
So in simple terms, what this bill does to set House Bill 217, it demands KRS 150 Dash 170 to allow hunting and fishing on your property if you're the landowner, regardless of the size, without having or without being required to purchase a hunting or fishing license to do so.
So it strikes that five words which stated five acres or more.
This has an emergency clause which would become effective immediately upon passage in the chambers and the governor's approval or becoming law.
Otherwise, a similar bill unanimously passed in the Senate just a few days ago.
