flag PA senators push to move deer season back to first Monday after Thanksgiving.

flag Pennsylvania state senators Gene Yaw and Lisa Boscola have introduced a bill to restore the traditional firearms deer season opener to the first Monday after Thanksgiving, reversing a 2019 shift to the following Saturday. flag The change, intended to boost participation and license sales, has drawn criticism for disrupting long-standing traditions, harming rural economies, and straining community events. flag Lawmakers cite declining attendance at local fundraisers, conflicts with Thanksgiving, and reduced coordination between schools and government offices. flag The Pennsylvania Game Commission recently rejected a proposal to move the opener even earlier, underscoring ongoing opposition to Saturday openings. flag Senators argue the cultural and economic costs of the shift outweigh unclear benefits, urging a return to the original date to preserve hunting heritage and support rural communities.
