[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2604595, member: 113268"] Game and Fish don't get money from the general fund here either. I don't think you understood what I said. Just like Arkansas, the TN Wildlife Resources Agency gets their money from licensing and the Pittman Robertson Act. You are talking about defunding them and hoping that someone figures out how to keep paying them. The reality is that they will just be defunded and there will be no way for them to make up the difference through increasing the cost of licensing and the states are not going to enact their own state level Pittman Robertson Act. Again, thats the reality of it. If the Pittman Robertson Act is repealed, what is to keep the manufacturers from keeping the money and leaving the prices the way they are? In other words, the money goes to the manufacturers instead of the state game and fish and your license costs go up while at the same time the the state game and fish have to cancel some of their restoration programs, hunter safety and education programs, and lay some of their people off.
