President Trump will host a dinner in the White House Rose Garden this evening with hunters, fishermen, and outdoor sporting goods stores after signing executive orders to expand hunting and fishing opportunities.
The EOs will reportedly target Biden-era restrictions on hunting and fishing and expand access to public lands and fishing waters, including offshore saltwater fishing.
Per Fox:
President Donald Trump will host more than 100 hunters, anglers and outdoor industry leaders for dinner at the White House on Thursday night, where he is expected to sign executive orders aimed at expanding hunting and fishing opportunities and reversing certain Biden-era restrictions.
Trump will deliver remarks to the sportsmen and industry representatives gathered for the dinner in the Rose Garden as his administration moves to open more public lands and waterways, ease regulatory barriers and promote hunting among younger Americans and veterans, Fox News Digital learned.
He is expected to sign a pair of executive orders in the Oval Office Thursday aimed at expanding “America’s public lands and waterways,” promoting healthy wild game populations and expanding access to offshore recreational fishing, a White House official told Fox News Digital.
Representatives from organizations and companies including Bass Pro Shops, the Cabela Family Foundation, the National Rifle Association, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Yamaha Marine Group, Polaris, Beretta USA, Safari Club International, Primos Hunting, Dallas Safari Club, Outdoor Sportsman Group, Sportsmen’s Alliance, USA Shooting Foundation, Ducks Unlimited, Sportsman Boats, Contender Boats, Taurus Holdings and the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation are expected to attend.
America’s outdoor recreation sector generates over $1.2 trillion annually and supports over 5 million jobs, according to a White House official.
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and officials from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Commerce Department will also be present.
Trump is scheduled to speak at the dinner at approximately 7 pm ET.
