Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C,I-Batavia) is pleased to announce passage of a bill which will authorize Orleans and Genesee County residents to hunt big game from November 15 till December 7. The bill allows residents to hunt using pistols, shotguns, muzzle loaded firearms, long bows, crossbows or rifles.
“Hunting is an important part of our history, it is how our forefathers survived and provided for their families,” said Hawley. “As a strong supporter of the Second Amendment, I am proud to announce that citizens of Orleans and Genesee counties will be able to continue this centuries-old tradition that is such a huge part of our Western New York culture. As a proud outdoorsman myself, I will continue to work tirelessly to protect our constitutional rights from special interests attempting to restrict them. The passage of this bill is a step in the right direction toward maintaining our freedom and right to own firearms.”
Assemblyman Hawley represents the 139th District, which consists of Genesee, Orleans and parts of Monroe County. For more information, visit Assemblyman Hawley’s Official Website.
