| Subject: | Legislation providing for hunting tags at no cost to 100% disabled veterans |
| In the near future I intend to introduce legislation that would amend Title 34, to provide for hunting tags for 100% disabled veterans at no cost. This would be applicable for veterans of any war or armed conflicts whose physical disability consists of the loss of one or more limbs, or whose physical disability is considered total. This bill would allow disabled veterans to receive the following hunting tags upon application without payment of the license or tag cost: regular hunting, regular furtaking, antlerless deer, bear, archery, muzzleloader, migratory game bird, elk, and special wild turkey. Veterans are some of the most selfless citizens in our Commonwealth. As we continue to honor their service to our country and to our state, I believe these individuals are entitled to receive hunting tags without charge. |
