Well it passed out of the Game and Fisheries Committee...next it will go to the Senate Appropriations Committee. This is where the Senators on the Appropriations committee examine the fiscal/Money issues impacted by this bill. So feel free to start contacting Senators on the Appropriations Committee.
If it passes out of appropriations it will thin go to the Senate FLOOR for a full Senate Vote.

None at all, I've been at this for many years and I've heard all of these sad arguments at to why hunter's can't hunt on their own property and the Game Lands they paid for on Sunday. That extra day is huge for most working hunters because it means a doubling of hunting days. I've made the argument many times that if a "day off" from hunting is truly necessary, make it Wednesday. That's always met with derision by the other side because they're lying about their true motives. Same with suggestions on banning non-hunting activities on Saturdays in state forests & Game Lands.
As to farmer "peace and quiet" then we need laws that prevent all non-critical farming operations on Sundays. No harvesting, no fertilizing or tilling. No harvesting timber or movement of non-perishables. Again, always met with derision because being told they may not engage in activities on their land is suddenly an issue but them saying I can't hunt my land on a Sunday isn't.
Mind you, I rarely support more laws. I want less, I want liberty. And I'm tired of arguing with anti-liberty zealots."A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself"

The "unfair to other users of SGLs" makes me roll my eyes like nothing else.
PA state game land mission statement, as it appears on the PAGC website right now:
"The Game Commission owns and manages nearly 1.5 million acres of state game lands throughout the Commonwealth. The primary purpose of these lands is the management of habitat for wildlife and provide opportunities for lawful hunting and trapping. Secondary recreational uses are permitted in accordance with the Game Commission’s regulations."
