Bill Summary

Hunting and Fishing Licenses; lifetime disabled resident licenses established

AI Summary

This bill establishes lifetime hunting and fishing licenses for disabled residents of Alabama, effective October 1, 2026, allowing eligible individuals to purchase these licenses instead of annual ones. The cost of a lifetime disabled resident hunting license or a lifetime disabled freshwater fishing license will be fifty dollars ($50) for those under 50 years old and thirty dollars ($30) for those 50 or older, with these fees going into the Alabama Game and Fish Endowment Fund. Similarly, a lifetime disabled resident saltwater fishing license will cost fifty dollars ($50) for those under 50 and thirty dollars ($30) for those 50 and older, with these fees deposited into the Alabama Marine Resources Endowment Fund. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources can also charge a one-dollar ($1) issuance fee, and these fees are subject to future adjustments. Licenses issued under this provision are non-transferable and grant the same privileges as a wildlife heritage license.
