Bill > HJR0874

This resolution, a formal expression of opinion by the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate, celebrates the eightieth anniversary of the Tennessee Wildlife Federation, a nonprofit organization founded in 1946 to address declining wildlife and natural resources. For eight decades, the Federation has worked to conserve Tennessee's fish and wildlife, protect outdoor access, and promote hunting and fishing heritage, playing a key role in restoring populations of various species through policy, management, and habitat conservation. It has become a leading voice on conservation policy, advocating for science-based solutions and engaging with diverse groups. The organization also contributes to the state through outreach programs like Hunters for the Hungry, which provides venison to those in need, and youth programs such as the Scholastic Clay Target Program and the Hunting and Fishing Academy, which teach firearm safety, responsibility, and conservation to younger generations.
