Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act of 1937
In 1937, hunters successfully lobbied Congress to pass the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act, which placed an 11% tax on all hunting equipment. This self-imposed tax now generates over $700 million each year and is used exclusively to establish, restore and protect wildlife habitats
While I have always supported this tax, it would be a benefit, if they do allow some of it to be spent to develop ranges for those of us who don't hunt, but do shoot
