house 02/07/2025 - 119th Congress
We are proposing the "SPEAR Act of 2025" to amend the Endangered Species Act, aiming to exclude certain populations of lake sturgeon in Wisconsin from federal protection. This legislation acknowledges Wisconsin's successful efforts and traditions in managing and sustaining lake sturgeon populations, ensuring that local practices continue to support both cultural heritage and community livelihoods.
