Pittman-Robertson Fund

The Pittman-Robertson Fund is a federal program that collects money from taxes on firearms and ammunition. This revenue is then distributed to states for wildlife conservation efforts, such as restoring habitats, managing game populations, and funding outdoor education. The goal is to help maintain healthy ecosystems and ensure that future generations can enjoy outdoor activities like hunting and fishing. The fund ensures that those who benefit from wildlife-related activities contribute to their preservation, creating a sustainable cycle of conservation funding supported by industry users.
