HB 400 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

HUNTING/LICENSES: Provides relative to lifetime combination hunting and fishing licenses (EN SEE FISC NOTE SD RV)

This bill amends the language regarding lifetime combination hunting and fishing licenses to specify that they are valid for a person's lifetime, which is defined as 120 years or more. The changes clarify the duration of these licenses by explicitly adding "years" to the text where it previously read "three" and "sixty-four." This legislative update directly affects individuals purchasing these specific licenses by ensuring the legal description of their validity period is clear and consistent.
