Bill Summary
25-1028 CONCERNING THE COLORADO LEGISLATIVE SPORTSMEN'S CAUCUS, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, DESIGNATING APRIL 25, 2025, AS "SPORTSMEN'S DAY".
AI Summary
This joint resolution honors Colorado's sportsmen and women by recognizing their historical and ongoing contributions to conservation and wildlife management. The resolution highlights how hunters and anglers were early conservationists who established critical wildlife protection laws, supported funding mechanisms like special license fees and excise taxes, and created the Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration Program, which has become a globally successful model for conservation funding. It specifically notes that in 2021, Colorado's hunters and anglers generated over $136 million for conservation efforts and contribute $3.2 billion to the state's economic output annually. The resolution calls for the General Assembly to encourage its members to join the Colorado Legislative Sportsmen's Caucus, urges public and private institutions to support sportsmen's conservation efforts, and officially designates April 25, 2025, as "Sportsmen's Day" in recognition of these contributions. As a final action, the resolution directs that copies be sent to the director of Colorado Parks and Wildlife and to Governor Jared Polis.
