The resolution proposes an amendment to the Constitution of Iowa that would establish the right of the state's residents to hunt, fish, trap, and harvest wildlife using traditional methods. This right would be subject to laws and regulations aimed at promoting wildlife conservation, managing natural resources for public use, and ensuring the sustainability of these activities for future generations. Additionally, the resolution emphasizes that public hunting, fishing, trapping, and harvesting should be preferred methods for managing and controlling wildlife populations.
Furthermore, the proposed amendment clarifies that it would not alter existing laws related to eminent domain, trespass, property rights, or water resources. If the resolution is adopted, it will be published and referred to the next general assembly for consideration, ultimately requiring ratification by the electorate in a future election.
