The Light Goose Conservation Order has been suspended for 2027 after agreement within the Atlantic Flyway from the eight participating hunt states, Quebec and Ontario. The population was below the lower population objective of 500,000 in 2025, and within the population objective range of 500,000-750,000 in 2019, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2026. The intent of the Conservation Order is to aggressively reduce the population of Greater Snow Geese, and that is currently not necessary. We have suspended the Conservation Order, rather than terminated it, because the population may surpass the upper population objective in the future. The Conservation Order is a unique and useful tool in managing the light goose population.

ANJRPC's NJ CARRY LAW GUIDE IS HERE!

June 18, 2026. With New Jersey's carry law still tied up in a years-long legal battle, there has been widespread confusion over which parts of the law remain in effect, and what that means for gun owners.

ANJRPC is now pleased to announce its online New Jersey Carry Law Guide https://www.anjrpc.org/page/NJ_Carry_Sensitive_Places
-- an essential resource for gun owners trying to understand the law even before it is finally resolved in the courts. The guide is free to all gun owners -- it is being provided by ANJRPC as a service to the entire Second Amendment community.

"New Jersey's carry laws are complicated and still unsettled, and our members need help understanding them," said ANJRPC president Kathy Chatterton. "Providing guidance on the Garden State's rules, even before they're finalized, is what this is all about. We've waited on the courts for too long—it's time to give whatever help we can to our members and the Second Amendment community at large."

ANJRPC's NJ Carry Law Guide is just that -- a guide. It is not legal advice, and should not be relied on as a substitute for legal advice. Use it to better understand the current state of New Jersey's carry law, but know that pending court decisions could make this guide outdated tomorrow -- but ANJRPC will update the guide in response to any changes.

New Jersey's carry law was passed several years ago, in a transparent attempt by the New Jersey legislature to circumvent the clear meaning of the U.S. Supreme Court's Bruen decision on right to carry. ANJRPC and other gun rights groups immediately challenged the law in court, and that challenge has worked its way through the courts over the last few years. A critical decision from the middle-level federal appeals court is pending and could come at any time.

Please share this message with every gun owner you know. It benefits everyone when our collective understanding of current law is increased.

This carry guide is free to everyone, but preparing it came at considerable cost. ANJRPC is funded entirely by the members and supporters who stand with us. We'd be honored to welcome you into the ANJRPC family, and if you're already a member, thank you for making work like this possible.
