Protecting Hunters and Anglers: Lead Ammo Use on Federal Lands
This bill generally stops federal agencies from banning lead ammunition and fishing tackle on public lands and waters open for hunting and fishing. It means hunters and anglers can continue using lead products in most places, unless a specific area has proven wildlife issues linked to lead, and state rules allow a ban there.
Key points
Federal agencies generally cannot ban lead ammunition or fishing tackle on public hunting/fishing lands.
Bans are only allowed in specific areas if lead is proven to harm wildlife there and the state agrees.
This aims to protect access for hunters and anglers using traditional gear.
