Recent Legislative Information
January 18, 2022
Once again the Virginia legislature is considering bills that relate to hunting on Sunday. While hunting is permitted on Sunday on private lands the current bills would extend hunting to public lands on Sunday. There are bills in both the house and senate intended to affect this change. The Senate version of the bill (Senate Bill 8 ) would extend Sunday hunting to all public lands while the House version of the bill (HB111) would only allow Sunday hunting on Wildlife Management areas. For the VHC’s formal position, please click on the Sunday Hunting link below.
If you have input, concerns, etc with respect to the bill, we request that you contact your Representative or Senator. Information regarding committee assignments on the proposed bill will be updated on this Page as it comes available.
