Bill overview
This bill proposed the creation of a special commission within the Massachusetts General Court to investigate and study deer population control strategies. The commission would include members of the court and would examine various methods for managing deer populations, considering their impact on the environment and communities. Despite initial referral, the bill ultimately failed to pass. It aimed to provide a comprehensive assessment of deer management options and recommend potential solutions.
