House Bill No. by Representative Henry amends R.S. 56:153 concerning the annual duck stamps in Louisiana. The bill removes the fees associated with both resident and nonresident duck stamps, which were previously set at five dollars and fifty cents for residents and twenty-five dollars for nonresidents. This change aims to facilitate greater access to duck stamps for all individuals interested in purchasing them.

Additionally, the bill maintains the department's authority to regulate the design, marketing, and sale of duck stamps and prints, ensuring that the original artwork is returned to the artist after the production process. The legislation emphasizes that the purchase of these stamps does not grant the buyer the right to hunt or transport ducks within the state. Overall, the bill seeks to streamline the process and promote the sale of duck stamps without the burden of associated fees.
