Brent Miller has been with CSF for over eight years, first serving as a Brad Rowse Policy Fellow in the fall of 2010 before being hired as the Northeastern States Manager. Now, as the Senior Director, Northeastern States and the States Program Administrator, Brent oversees and interacts with the state legislative sportsmen's caucuses who are members of the National Assembly of Sportsmen's Caucuses (NASC) and supports the members of the Governors Sportsmen's Caucus in the northeast. Brent also supervises the Mid-Atlantic and New England States Coordinators; assists in the management of the Brad Rowse Policy Fellow program; provides administrative support for the States Program Team; and his federal policy portfolio includes firearm, knife, deer management, and trapping legislation.

Brent graduated with honors from Bard College in upstate New York with a Master of Science degree in Environmental Policy, where he focused his graduate studies on sportsmen's issues in the northeast. His thesis examined the potential for changes in Sunday hunting policy to provide increased funding for state wildlife management agencies throughout the region. Further research (and subsequent publication) included an evaluation of management techniques for localized White-tailed deer overpopulation concerns. Further, Brent received a Professional Development Certificate from The Wildlife Society, has been twice appointed to the National Wildlife Services Advisory Committee, and served as a Committee Member on the Maryland Sportsmen's Marketing Initiative. Brent was awarded the 2015 Suppressor Advocate of the Year by the American Suppressor Association, and received a legislative citation from Massachusetts for his dedication to sportsmen’s issues.

A key component of the American System of Conservation Funding, the Pittman- Robertson Act directs excise taxes on firearms, ammo, and archery equipment to wildlife conservation. Since its inception in 1937 the Act has generated more than $12 billion towards conservation. However, there has been a loss of 5 million hunters in the past decade. One proposed solution to help fund conservation is to dedicate lottery proceeds for conservation purposes. Would you support this effort in your state?
