If voters approve the referendum, the amendment would be added to the constitution. It was adopted in 1910. The amendment was ratified in 1999. The amendment was ratified in 2000. The provision was created in 1777.
People have the right to hunt, fish and harvest game, subject to state regulations and restrictions.
The amendment was ratified in 2000. The Senate action was the first step in the lengthy process aimed at making Wisconsin one of at least seven states to safeguard hunters' rights in their constitutions. Similar constitutional amendments were approved last year in Virginia and in 1999 in Minnesota. When people have invested time, effort and money in preserving this great land, and the fish we eat, and the game, they have a right to protection. Amending the constitution now could protect the rights of hunters, anglers and trappers by giving them a voice against their opponents in the future, Baumgart said.
