About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

The use of lead in ammo and fishing leads and sinkers is killing our wildlife including our national bird, the symbol of our freedom, the bald eagle. Lead left in animals that are human consumed is also showing in humans. We banned lead in paint. It's past time we ended it in hunting and fishing! There are different options already out for both hunting and fishing.
