Politics matter because they are the means by which the laws of our country, states, and communities are shaped. And those laws communicate what we value as a society.

These specific  states include, New York, Maryland, Florida, Missouri, South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Montana, Arizona, and Nevada.Joining us today to help us better understand what these initiatives look like at a grassroots level and how they could impact the pro-life movement are Willie Isaacson and Joel Gilbert. Both Willie and Joel come highly recommended within their state conventions and come with years of experience in local and state policy advocacy.Willie Isaacson is senior pastor of First Baptist, Richmond, Missouri where he has served for over 11 years. He currently serves as the chair of the Missouri Baptist Christian Life Commission and president of the Ministerial Alliance in Richmond, Missouri.Joel Gilbert has served in Baptist churches in the D.C. area for over 25 years and currently serves as pastor at Poolesville Baptist Church in Poolesville, Maryland.

In this week's episode of the Sportsmen's Voice Roundup, Fred is back covering all that's fit to print related to hunting, fishing, and other conservation matters across the nation. Fred begins by reporting that the President and 44 (a new record!) Governors signed proclamations celebrating National Hunting and Fishing Day, citing the contributions of sportsmen and women to conservation efforts across our nation. Fred then shifts to the ongoing opposition campaign against Colorado's Prop 127, which seeks to restrict hunting and predator management. Fred breaks down the Fix Our Forests Act, emphasizing its importance in wildfire management and forest health. We close with some important updates on fall turkey hunting regulation changes, a passionate defense of trapping practices, a proposed sporting dog county ordinance in South Carolina that faced opposition from the sporting community, concerns regarding the U.S. Forest Service's National Old-Growth Amendment, and the announcement of Angi Bruce as the new Director of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department.   Takeaways Vote NO On Colorado Proposition 127: Colorado's Prop 127 threatens science-based wildlife management. Protecting Sportsmen's Interests in Ballot Initiatives and Referenda – Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation The Fix Our Forests Act: The Fix Our Forests Act aims to improve forest health and reduce wildfire risks.

In the FIRST of TWO lead stories on this episode of the Sportsmen's Voice Roundup, Fred catches up with the Speaker of the House, Representative Mike Johnson of Louisiana to discuss the Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus as a shining example of bipartisan cooperation and advancing pro sporting legislation, while in a hyper partisan environment. Fred then follows up with CSF Senior Director of Fisheries Policy Chris Horton highlighting bipartisan legislative actions, the impact of proposed vessel speed reduction rules on fishing industries, and the importance of technology in wildlife conservation.   Fred is then joined for a special update on Colorado Prop 127 by Colorado Wildlife Deserve Better Campaign Manager, Mark Truax and CSF's Assistant Manager for the Southwestern States, Barry Snell to discuss the implications of the proposition, the confusion it creates among voters, and the need for effective messaging to engage non-hunters. The crew emphasizes the importance of wildlife management and the role of hunters in conservation, while also addressing the financial aspects of the campaign and the urgency of mobilizing voters ahead of the election.   Takeaways Colorado Proposition 127 Misinformation: Proposition 127 aims to ban mountain lion and bobcat hunting in Colorado. The opposition has invested heavily in media campaigns to sway public opinion, including the inclusion of lynx in the proposition - which is misleading as they are already protected, and polling indicates a close race, necessitating targeted outreach efforts. Protecting Sportsmen's Interests in Ballot Initiatives and Referenda – Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation The ACE Reauthorization Act: This bill is critical for wetlands conservation The Vessel Speed Restriction Rule: This regulation will do drastic harm to the fishing industry, necessitating state legislatures to actively push back against federal rules like it. Arkansas Expansion: The Natural State is expanding hunting opportunities with new seasons.   Home - Wildlife Deserve Better   CSF Protecting Outdoor Pursuits Conservation Raffle: POP4Conservation   Get the FREE Sportsmen's Voice e-publication in your inbox every Monday: www.congressionalsportsmen.org/newsletter

Paul Guppy of the Washington Policy Center argues that government greed may be behind the push to defeat citizen-led ballot initiatives aimed at reducing new taxes in Washington state.

We discuss how ballot measures give voters the opportunity to take power and agency. It is about citizens putting issues that are important to their communities, gathering signatures, and then putting them on the ballot directly to effect policy change.   Her civic action toolkit recommendations are:   1. Voting is the starting line, not the finish line. 2. Hold your elected officials accountable after elections by reaching out to them about the issues that matter to you, and making sure they are keeping their promises.   Chris Melody Fields Figueredo is the Executive Director of The Ballot Initiative Strategy Center, which works to strengthen American democracy using ballot initiatives.  Follow Chris on X:  https://x.com/fieldsy    Follow Mila on X:  https://x.com/milaatmos    Follow Future Hindsight on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/futurehindsightpod/   Sponsor:  Thanks to Shopify for supporting Future Hindsight!

Fighting the Abortion Ballot Initiatives (Part One) by Priests for Life

*Guest Hosts: Leah Murray & Rusty Cannon Utah's GOP-led Legislature has passed a proposed constitutional amendment that would prohibit foreign actors from influencing ballot measures in the state. The amendment aims to prevent foreign entities from spending money to sway Utah's ballot initiatives, a practice currently not prohibited by state or federal law.

The Trump campaign said it had been hacked and Iranians were behind it. Eight states have ballot measures around reproductive rights to be put to voters in November, and US-brokered peace talks on Sudan begin in Geneva today to try to alleviate the world's largest displacement crisis.Want more comprehensive analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?
