Tell Governor Parnell You Support Access to Your Fishing Streams
Tell Governor Parnell you support House Bill 144 and want to enjoy the outdoors and fish our public waters without being blocked from access to our best waters and without having to pay the kinds of fees charged in the Lower Forty-Eight.
Why is this important?
In many states public access to fishing streams is blocked by the sale of land to private landowners who restrict access, require exorbitant fees, or rent space for short periods of time. House Bill 144 would protect and enhance the right of Alaskans to enjoy our unparalleled fishing streams into the future by helping ensure that fishing stream access is not sold or developed. The bill has passed both houses unanimously, and now we respectfully request that the Governor join Alaskans and Alaska’s fishing groups in support of this bill by signing this legislation into law. Polite letters to the Governor at sean.parnell @alaska.gov and [email protected] are encouraged so he knows the measure enjoys public support. To learn more go to http://akdemocrats.org/rep_gara/.
