Hunting and fishing license; authorize Native Americans to receive free of charge upon providing tribal identification card.

HB 789 would require Mississippi to issue free resident hunting and fishing licenses to qualified Native Americans who present a federally recognized tribal identification card at the time of application. The bill specifically defines "tribal identification card" as a photo ID issued by a federally recognized tribe, containing the holder's name, address, and date of birth. This provision amends existing license fee laws to exempt qualifying Native American residents from paying standard license fees. The bill also updates related sections of Mississippi law to align with this change in fee structure.
