By the end of 2022, Maine may be the only state that does not allow some form of Sunday hunting. Massachusetts, the other holdout, is considering ending its prohibition through proposed legislation. In Maine, the debate recently heated up again during the current Legislative session, when more bills aimed at opening the door for some form of Sunday hunting failed — for approximately the 35th time in the past 40 years — when they did not earn the support of the Committee on Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. More recently, in the wake of the passage last November of Maine’s right-to-food amendment, a couple from Readfield filed suit against the state arguing the Sunday hunting ban violates their rights as provided by the new law. There are strong arguments on both sides.
