Resolution; commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Sport Fish Restoration Program.

HR 1023 is a resolution by the Oklahoma House of Representatives commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Sport Fish Restoration Program, established in 1950. It recognizes the program's role in funding fisheries conservation through excise taxes on fishing equipment and motorboat fuels, which have collectively provided over $78 billion in conservation funding since 1939. The resolution expresses appreciation to anglers, the sportfishing industry, state fish and wildlife agencies, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for their contributions to restoring fish populations and aquatic resources. As a commemorative resolution, it does not create new laws or policies but formally acknowledges this partnership's historical impact.
