OK ....... then what stamp were you talking about when you said:

"kinda like our stamp money going to DU", and

"But duck hunters that do not support DU are forced to buy a stamp that the proceeds are given to DU"?

I'm only aware of 2 stamps relevant to the conversation: the federal Duck Stamp and the LA state Duck Stamp. The proceeds of neither go to DU.

Your posts exhibited a fairly common misconception, which is why I took the opportunity to address it.

So you're saying that 0 federal dollars from the sale of fed duck stamps are "granted" to DU?

First rule of debating; Never ask a question you don't already know the answer to. If you need an example, see Trey Gowdy.

Federal Duck Stamp money is legally mandated to be used for habitat acquisition: land purchase or perpetual conservation easements as allocated by the Migratory Bird Conservation Commission. As of last year, the USFWS Real Estate Office still had more landowners willing to sell land and/or easements than the Duck Stamp revenue could cover into the foreseeable future.

Our money goes to DU. Whether you insulate that fact through layers of their bureaucracy or not, we pay (by law) the Feds, and they pay DU.

Show us how and where federal duck stamp money goes to DU?

NAWCA money ...... certainly; WRP ...... absolutely; but you'll need to educate me on how DU gets federal duck stamp money.
