Senator Michael O. Moore

Senator Moore is sponsoring An Act further regulating the enforcement of illegal hunting practices, this session.  This bill modernizes penalties for poaching—some of Massachusetts’ poaching penalties haven’t been updated in nearly a century—and enter Massachusetts into an interstate law enforcement network, ending our status as a poacher’s paradise. This legislation updates our penalties to bring them in line with those of other states and thus deters would-be poachers, while also protecting wildlife, tourism, and business in the Commonwealth.
