(Terry Bell, WRN) A proposal in the Legislature would roll-back regulations on Wisconsin’s hunters, fishers, and trappers.

An Assembly committee passed a bill Wednesday that would require the Department of Natural Resources to erase three regulations for every new regulation. State Representative Calvin Callahan says the idea is to make it easier to get out into the outdoors.

The Department of Natural Resources’ 50-thousand regulations for hunting and fishing is reportedly more than the next three most-regulated state agencies combined. Democrats say the proposal will just lead to more red tape.
