So far that is the only legislation that HCU has worked on. I admit it is the main reason HCU was formed.
But we have done other things as far as asking members to help on scientific studies and contribute to grants that would fund scientific studies.
And we do have other goals such as increasing the rights to captive breed herps and increasing the rights to recreationally collect herps in states.
We just are not that powerful and we don't have very many members in very many states. Virtually all of what little financhial resources we have has gone into the roadban. I personally don't have a problem with that because it is a huge issue and reversing it would help alot of people.
But the main thing I have been trying to stress is that HCU has not tried to trade away any rights of other stakeholders in order to get the ban reversed. That is very clear if you look at what legislation we have promoted. All of our efforts have strictly focused on the posetive merits of roadhunting itself, not on "trading" away others rights as we have been accused of.
