Petition to return opening day of Pa Rifled Deer Season back to Monday

The Issue

Changing of the opening day of Pa Rifle Season has not done what the Game Commission said it would do, it has taken away years of tradition, created undue burden for those who own camps and those who come from out of state.  It has had a negative impact on local economies, from East to West North of Interstate 80 who relied on that weekend's business to help them get through the winter.
