TO ADDRESS THE ISSUANCE OF HUNTING AND FISHING LICENSES TO FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENTS.

HB 1631 proposes to amend Arkansas law regarding hunting and fishing licenses. The bill would allow the Arkansas State Game and Fish Commission to categorize foreign exchange students in the same manner as nonresident college students for the purpose of issuing these licenses. This change directly affects foreign exchange students who wish to obtain a hunting or fishing license, potentially allowing them to access licenses under the same terms as nonresident college students.
