What changed in the latest version
3 added · 3 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of Bill HB 260 makes a small but important change regarding the activities that require licenses, tags, or permits from the Department of Fish and Game. Specifically, it removes the reference to "fur dealing" from the list of activities outlined in the bill. This matters because it clarifies that fur dealing is no longer restricted under the same licensing requirements, potentially making it easier for individuals involved in this activity. Overall, this adjustment seeks to streamline regulations while ensuring responsible wildlife management.
