Today, is hopefully, the final epic push towards nationwide delisting of
wolves, so that Each State can manage wolves without lawsuit, without
continued Federal process mismanagement and allow each state to protect
game herds, livestock, pets, and rural jobs.

Today, Democratic Congressman Jim Matheson of Utah, Leonard Boswell of
Iowa, Dan Boren of Oklahoma, Dennis Cardoza of California and Mike Ross
of Arkansas joined Republican Congressman Denny Rheberg of Montana,
Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Rob Bishop and Jason Chaffetz of Utah, Greg
Walden of Oregon, Raul Labrador and Mike Simpson of Idaho, Dean Heller
of Nevada, John Kline of Minnesota, Don Young of Alaska and Paul Broun
of Georgia as the Original Co sponsors of the what was known last
session as HR. 6028.

With animal rights extremists filing litigation to force wolves into
every US state, Congressional leaders have seen the disastrous outcomes
of wolf over populations in Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and Minnesota.
Congressional leaders in surround states realize and can see the need to
proactively solve this problem for each state, and let each and every
state manage all wildlife as they have done successfully for the last
100 years.

In similar legislation a few years ago that exempted state hunting
license allocations from the Interstate Commerce Clause Act, Senator
Reid of Nevada stated four things in his testimony considering that
legislation that are exactly parallel to this legislation: State are
best equipped to manage all wildlife, hunting is an important part of
the rural economies, sportsmen and landowners have invested tremendous
amounts of money to restore game herds, and time is of the essence.

The animal rights groups will fight this biologically sound,
economically important, and public opinion supported legislation tooth
and toenail. It is their agenda to use wolves as a biological weapon to
end ranching and hunting in the west. These extremists do not care
about wolves, they do not protect wildlife habitat, they simply use the
courts to win HUGE settlements of public funds because of some technical
error.

32 Different state fish and game agencies, filled with literally
thousands of professionally trained biologists, have all gone on record
supporting Congressional Action to return wolf management to every
state.

We encourage EVERY SPORTSMEN, LANDOWNER and SMALL BUSINESS person in
AMERICA to join with us at www.biggameforever.org and help us fix this,
just one of many, examples where Federal Government over reach and
courts are destroying business, jobs, and now even America's cherished
wildlife populations on our great public lands of America.

WE thank these bi-partisan Democratic and Republican leaders who see the
need to solve this important problem to 10 plus million big game hunters
and America's ranchers and farmers, and all the small and large
businesses associated with the hunting, tourism and ranching economies.
