Sadly that happened to a lot of folks. I even found the petition in a bait and tackle shop down here. The folks that run the shop had no idea what the ramifications of this proposal would be. The heading on the petition basically would lead you to believe that this would improve the fishing down here, of course there was nothing other than a statement that it would do so..nothing to back up that statement. I believe you will find the document I mentioned above will give you the real insight into what the ramifications are if this legislation passes.
By the way, Congressman Whitfield is on a Town Hall Meeting tour right now and will be in Murray on Friday. I plan on being there as are some other folks that are opposed to this legislation to voice our opposition. If any of you live down here in western Ky you might consider coming to that meeting or one of the other meetings he has planned around the state.
