Bill Summary
Under current law, persons age 65 and older receive discounts on firearm licenses and bow and arrow licenses, but not on trapping licenses, the "All-Around Sportsman License," or individual hunting permits and stamps. This bill would provide discounts to persons 65 years of age and older on trapping licenses, the "All-Around Sportsman License," the deer, turkey, and rifle permits, and the pheasant and quail stamps, at rates which are consistent with the discounts already authorized for other closely related outdoor activities.
AI Summary
This bill provides discounted hunting and trapping license, permit, and stamp fees for senior citizens (aged 65 and older) in New Jersey.
