Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act

This bill stops three federal agencies — the Fish and Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Forest Service — from banning or creating rules about using lead ammunition or fishing tackle on federal land or water. However, there are exceptions: these agencies can still regulate lead ammunition or tackle if they have field data showing that lead use is the main reason a wildlife population is declining in a specific area, and the state also agrees to the regulations.
