Bill > S1676

This bill proposes to repeal Section 45 of chapter 135 of the Acts of 2024, which appears to be related to a previous law that banned nonresidents from semiautomatic hunting. By repealing this specific section, the bill would effectively remove the existing restriction, allowing nonresidents to engage in semiautomatic hunting. While the bill text is quite concise, it suggests that the original legislation had placed limitations on nonresident hunters using semiautomatic weapons, and this new bill seeks to eliminate those restrictions. The bill would require approval by the Senate and House of Representatives in the Massachusetts General Court, and if passed, would modify existing hunting regulations to provide more inclusive access for nonresident hunters.
