Stewardship Is Bipartisan, Robson Says

Sen. Robson said that governors of both political parties have been strong supporters of the state Stewardship Fund, and it has wide support among hunters, fishers and naturalists. She said 156 groups of hunting, fishing and trapping groups are supporting the Gov. Doyle's plan to increase the funding, a plan the Senate endorsed.

"There is no greater public policy for Wisconsin hunters and naturalists than supporting this stewardship program and making sure they're open for them and all of us," she said.

She said the GOP Assembly budget cuts the funding by 60 percent, and "sets back funding 18 years."
