Failed·5/20/25
Introduced Text

Montana HB216 would allow the Fish and Wildlife Commission to issue deer and elk hunting licenses to private landowners within the Flathead Indian.

Montana HB216 would require the Fish and Wildlife Commission to establish rules for issuing deer and elk hunting licenses to private landowners within the Flathead Indian Reservation. These licenses would only be valid for hunting on land owned by the license holder within the reservation. The Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks would pursue an agreement with the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes to transfer revenue from these licenses to the tribal council. The Secretary of State would notify all federally recognized tribal governments in Montana of this act.
