AI Summary
This bill would reduce the residency requirement for obtaining a resident hunting license from six months to 60 days. Currently, to be considered a resident for hunting license purposes, an individual must have an "actual and bona fide domicile" in the state for at least six months immediately prior to applying. This bill proposes to change that duration to 60 days, making it easier for individuals who have recently moved to the state to qualify for a resident hunting license.
