Dear Members of the House Natural Resources and Tourism Committee,
House Bill 5093, legislation developed by and for Michigan anglers to enhance and strengthen fishing opportunities across our state, is scheduled for consideration at this week's committee meeting on Wednesday, June 3.
This bill has generated broad support from anglers, conservation advocates, and businesses throughout Michigan—from the Keweenaw Peninsula to Southeast Michigan. I would like to share the attached updated list of supporters, which has now grown to 161 organizations, businesses, individuals and tourist bureaus representing communities across the state. This support continues to grow as we engage with more stakeholders.
The strong and diverse support for HB 5093 reflects its importance to Michigan's outdoor heritage, recreational fishing opportunities, and the local economies that depend on them. We respectfully urge you to support this legislation and vote "yes" to advance HB 5093 to the full House of Representatives for further consideration.
Thank you for your consideration and for your support for improving Michigan’s natural resources for its citizens.
