Freedom to Hunt. Freedom to Fish. 250 Years Strong.
As America approaches its 250th anniversary, we celebrate more than independence – we celebrate the freedoms that define it.
The freedom to hunt.
The freedom to fish.
The freedom to access our lands and waters.
For 250 years, these traditions have shaped our nation.
Today, they depend on something more than history – they depend on policy.
The Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation is leading the effort to protect access, advance conservation, and ensure these traditions continue for generations to come.
A Uniquely American Heritage |
Built on Land, Water, and Liberty
No other country in the world has built what America has.
A system where the public owns the land. Where wildlife is managed through science. Where conservation is funded by those who participate in it.
From vast public lands to thriving wildlife populations, the opportunities available to American sportsmen and women are unmatched anywhere in the world.
These traditions are more than recreation – they are a reflection of our values, our freedoms, and our responsibility to steward the land.
Public Lands Belong to the People
Millions of acres are open to hunters and anglers – protected through policy and defended through advocacy.
Conservation is Sportsmen-Funded
Through licenses, excise taxes, and dedicated funding, sportsmen and women have built the most successful conservation model in the world – the American System of Conservation Funding.
Wildlife Thrives Because It’s Managed
Species like the wild turkey stand as proof that science-based wildlife management works.
Traditions Are Passed Down, Not Left Behind
Hunting and fishing are more than recreation – they are a connection between generations.
