Over the course of his career as president of Crain Information Systems in Dallas, Texas, Nate Crain has remained involved in politics and various community endeavors. Nate Crain supports a number of organizations, including the National Rifle Association (NRA).
In a recently released statement, the NRA applauded the reintroduction of a bill benefiting America's hunters and sportsmen. Reintroduced by Representative Jeff Duncan of South Carolina, the Sportsmen's Heritage and Recreational Enhancement (SHARE) Act would reduce regulations related to public lands access and certain firearm-related equipment.
Specifically, the SHARE Act would ensure that management plans for public lands contain measures supporting activities such as hunting, fishing, and recreational shooting. The bill also addresses federal laws and regulations restricting gun owners' rights to transport firearms and purchase firearms sound suppressors. Moreover, the SHARE Act includes measures to extend existing firearm carry laws to lands managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
While previous versions of the act have failed to be signed into law, gun advocates believe this one has a greater chance under a Trump-led White House. As is the case with most gun-related legislation, however, the bill still faces strong opposition.
