So the CCA had an opportunity to sponsor the house bill, which would have saved us $15, but instead, they sponsored the senate bill, so we got shafted? NICE! I thought it wasn't in their charter to support something like that. Shocker. In black and white, even. Who'd a thunkit?

Marsha, the article you got your HSUS info from, the reporter was incorrect, as the bill he was referring to was actually, of all things, a bill regulating laying hens. Not your fault that he gave incorrect information.

RMEF doesn't have an active lobbiest in Washington State, neither does DU. NRA has one guy who covers three states. PSA, CCA, and Hunters Heritage do have active lobbiests. Any group that was approached and chose not to act on the house bill loses my support. Shouldn't the $380 I spend each year in licenses allow me some benefit when it comes the Discovery Pass? Apparently the PSA and CCA don't think so.

So, it appears that the title of this thread is entirely appropriate.

Still waiting on that apology.
