A Western Slope lawmaker is making it his mission to stop city folk from playing with wildlife policy at the ballot box and forcing any more apex predators down the throats of rural areas that don’t want it.

Republican State Sen. Perry Will says he’s introducing a bill this session to stop the madness with these dangerous mandates.

Will told the Delta County Independent in a recent interview that he’s tired of ballot box policy from people who don’t have any skin the game.

“This bill’s going to show the governor and hopefully a whole lot of other people how you reintroduce a species the right way with the professionals doing it. By running this bill, we will avoid an initiative to reintroduce wolverines. It’s going to be a good message to stop these initiatives, and let’s quit managing wildlife through the ballot box.”

Godspeed with this bill before First Gentleman Marlon Reis comes up with any more loony ideas, like turning Grizzlies loose on all those ranchers who don’t support his husband, Governor Polis.
