Found this while googling info about the bill...I'm not as smart as Wayne, so does this mean that the THA were speaking FOR the bill? If so, why? And does anyone know what the TPWD rep said? Public Record Act and all, has anyone found a transcript of the committee meeting?

From what I've heard (its in one of the previous threads) the "amended" version of the bill reads in such a way as to exclude the capture of raptors for "educational purposes".
