    Default This has been trown out.


    This has already been reviewed by the EPA and was thrown out very quickly. It will not even go to a vote.

    Default Ban on fishing tackle has NOT been thrown out

    All of EPA's news releases are here. The one for 8/27 was deceptively titled "EPA Denies Petition Calling for Lead Ammunition Ban". When you read the release, however, you discover that the only thing thrown out was the idea of a ban on ammo. The notice went on to say-
    EPA was not and is not considering taking action on whether the lead content in hunting ammunition poses an undue threat to wildlife.

    As there are no similar jurisdictional issues relating to the agency's authority over fishing sinkers, EPA – as required by law – will continue formally reviewing a second part the petition related to lead fishing sinkers.


    All of NRA's money and clout are gone, leaving fishermen to fight EPA and the tree huggers all alone.
    Fishing since '50!
