Today during its work session, the Maine Joint Committee on Inland Fisheries
and Wildlife members considered testimony on LD 1265.
The American Kennel Club (AKC) had issued an alert and testified expressing
opposition to the bill, as introduced. Although the title of the bill states
it is intended to control the hunting of coyotes, the bill would have
negatively impacted all hunting dogs. After deliberation, the committee voted
unanimously that LD 1265 ought not to pass.
The AKC is grateful to the Joint Committee on Inland Fisheries and Wildlife for
its thoughtful review of all the testimony received and to the Maine sportsmen,
women and residents who contacted the committee to express concerns.
WHAT YOU CAN DO: AKC encourages those who took action to now contact the
committee at IFW@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and thank them for voting “ought not to
pass” on LD 1265.
