A bill that fully repeals the ban on Sunday hunting is now law.
According to the PA Game Commission, after passing the House and Senate, House Bill 1431 was recently signed into law by Governor Josh Shapiro.
It allows the Game Commission to include Sundays when hunting seasons are established annually and is backed by many sportsman’s groups as well as the Pennsylvania Farm Bureau.
“The Pennsylvania Game Commission could not be more excited to celebrate this long-awaited moment,” Executive Director Steve Smith said. “This landmark law effectively will contribute to keeping hunters engaged and performing the valuable public service they provide in helping manage our wildlife populations and ensuring the future of wildlife conservation. Today is a win for wildlife. Today will forever be remembered.”
The law takes 60 days to take effect and the Game Commission plans to implement new Sunday hunting opportunities for the current hunting season.
