SCI-PAC Endorses Rep. Richard Hudson for Reelection in North Carolina’s 9th District

According to Safari Club International, its political action committee, SCI-PAC, has endorsed Representative Richard Hudson, a Republican from North Carolina's 9th District, for reelection. The organization describes SCI-PAC as the largest political action committee in the United States that is led by sportsmen.

Safari Club International identifies Hudson as a past Federal Legislator of the Year honoree and as an outdoorsman. The group says he has represented sportsmen and sportswomen throughout his time in Congress.

The organization reports that Hudson recently became a co-sponsor of H.R. 5110, titled the Protecting Hunting Heritage and Education Act. That measure, as described by SCI, is intended to prevent the Department of Education from placing limits on money for hunting and archery programs in schools. SCI further states that Hudson supported a separate proposal under which federal agencies could not prohibit lead ammunition on public lands unless science supported such a prohibition.

SCI-PAC presents this endorsement as support for Hudson on hunting and conservation matters in North Carolina.
