"Get out there and vote. Support your NGOs or your local organizations. Be involved. It's critically important that we're actively involved beyond going hunting. We must have our voice heard. We must put our money where our mouth is. And we must support individuals that are in support of maintaining the legacy we have in this country."— Joe Betar, Executive Director, Houston Safari Club FoundationWelcome to a special election day edition of Restless Native. If you hate politics, don’t go anywhere. We’re actually not getting into who you should vote for. On today’s show, we’re talking with Joe Betar with Houston Safari Club Foundation. You may recall Joe from a previous episode. He’s an incredibly smart fella, and a guy I’m happy to call a friend.While last time we talked about all of the great conservation and educational efforts Houston Safari Club Foundation promotes, I wanted to have Joe back on for this election day episode to talk about what he’s been doing on the lobbying and legislation side of things. Few people can talk about the impacts of conservation dollars like Joe. And beyond that, we’re going to get into how you can better inform your vote. And I beg of you to exercise your right to vote. There are few things more paramount to your right as an American than your right to vote. Don’t take that for granted. And as Joe said, if you don’t vote, please, keep your complaints to yourself. You have an amazing opportunity to be a part of a solution. With how easy early voting is these days, you have no valid excuses. Please, put your mind to work. Evaluate the things that matter most to you. And cast your vote.Learn more about the conventionInform Yourself:Congressional Sportsmen I Side With NRAHouston Safari Club's website
