Bill > HB367

This bill revises the constitutional language regarding the "harvest heritage" in Montana. It amends Article IX, Section 7 of the Montana Constitution to affirm the citizens' right to hunt, fish, trap, and harvest wild fish and wildlife, as long as they do not trespass on private property or diminish private property rights. The bill also states that the state should give preference to these activities as the primary but not exclusive means of managing wild fish and wildlife populations for the benefit of all Montanans. The proposed amendment requires a two-thirds vote in the legislature and approval from the state's electorate to take effect.
