Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green), in conjunction with the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus, has introduced a bipartisan legislative package titled the Sportsmen's Heritage and Recreational Enhancement (SHARE) Act of 2013. Included in this legislative package are proposals that protect sportsmen and sportswomen heritage and outdoor traditions, as well as enhance priorities that are important to the outdoor sporting community.

“This bipartisan legislative package is an important advancement for the outdoor sporting community. Contained within this legislative package are proposals that will increase public access to our nation’s public lands, prevent an unjustified ban on certain types of fishing tackle and also promote the conservation values of hunting and recreational shooting,” said Congressman Latta. “As the Co-Chair of the Congressional Sportsmen Caucus, I believe it is essential to preserve and advance the values and traditions of sportsmen and sportswomen in my home state of Ohio, and throughout the United States. I look forward to advancing this legislation and other legislative priorities that serve to the betterment of current and future generations of hunter-conservationists.”

The Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus is a bipartisan, bicameral group with nearly 300 members of the House and Senate representing almost all 50 states. Congressman Latta serves as Co-Chair of the caucus.
