Co Senate Panel Rejects Polis..

[pods8 (Rugged Stitching)]

When this thread started the howl petition was at 65. Just looked and it is over 3200..

Not a bad showing the conformation vote as said was moved to Friday. Will be interesting and see if the appointments get approved as it sounds like it will be close...

The calls hold a lot more pull than the emails, it all helps but if you haven't called directly do it. Really hammer on the fact the nominee for sportsman has no ties to sportsman and in no way represents you as a sportsman.

I really hope they do not get confirmed and the cat ballot bill gets killed. That would be a kick in the nuts to the Governor and let them know we are awake.

Yea that would be good. It’s about time people stand up against him

Update is..

Gary Sibka has withdrawn their nomination due to all the pressure..

Let’s hope Beaulieu sees the writing in the wall and does the same. If not she should not be confirmed now…

Need Beaulieu out.

Word around the campfire is the votes are not there for either. Sibka saw the way the vote would go and bowed out.

See how the vote goes but Beau seems to want to be voted down as a protest.

Called my democrat state senator on the front range this morning and asked her to vote no for all 3 appointees.

Word on the street is that all the Governor’s henchmen, Spineless Dan Gibbs-DNR Director and others were really pressing the Senators at the Capital to save these appointments. Will be close. Hunters definitely moved the needle.

They've been jaw jacking about SB24-094 for a long time... which needs to wrap up before then get to the appointments.

Sounds like they're about to get to it.

 

[JBahr]

Moved to next Tuesday...

 

[pods8 (Rugged Stitching)]

Kicked the can down the road again! Which side are they giving more time to here?

 

[Aaron W]

Sounds like it's delayed until Tuesday 3/12

 

[JBahr]

In a democrat controlled government... They are buying themselves time... Let's get louder! I called and emailed twice. Specifically made efforts to customize the Howl message to include my personal details lest they confuse us for an "AI grass roots campaign"...

 

[Shotgun Pleading]

They laid over the Commission appointments to 3/12.

 

[pods8 (Rugged Stitching)]

So this is bizarre, this article shows it was out about 5min before we all heard that delay vote. Someone had some insider info lol:

Colorado Senate delays vote on governor appointees to parks and wildlife commission as one commissioner steps down

Gary Skiba was appointed to the Colorado Parks and Wildlife commission in July 2023 and stepped down before confirmation amid opposition

+1 to this, they bought us more time to call too!

Great opportunity to call/email again and to donate to CRWM.

I find the comments from the anti hunting group comical and projection in the finest, just because their tactic is blatant lies and harassment to trick folks and also make their numbers seem inflated doesn't mean we all need to stoop to their tactics.

Since we're ALL labeled trophy hunters (repetitive narrative) which includes harvesting a doe and taking only the meat (cause I certainly do that) that must make all them folks at the store Trophy Shoppers? Lol
