The Voice of Fish & Wildlife Agencies: State WSFR Apportionments

Exempt the Trust Funds

State Breakdown of WSFR Apportionments

The Wildlife and Sport Restoration Trust Funds are the lifeblood of every state fish and wildlife agency. Approximately 80% of a state agency's budget is derived from the 10% excise tax paid up front quarterly by the hunting, shooting and angling industries and ultimately by America's sportsmen and women.
