“Get out there and vote. Support your NGOs or your local organizations. Be involved. It’s critically important that we’re actively involved beyond going hunting. We must have our voice heard. We must put our money where our mouth is. And we must support individuals that are in support of maintaining the legacy we have in this country.”
— Joe Betar, Executive Director, Houston Safari Club Foundation

On the Election Day edition of Restless Native, you can find resources that will help you inform yourself. Don't worry. If you hate politics, this episode is actually very casual and isn't trying to tell you who to vote for. Instead, it's actually telling you how to figure that out for yourself.

And as Joe said, if you don’t vote, please, keep your complaints to yourself. You have an amazing opportunity to be a part of a solution. With how easy early voting is these days, you have no valid excuses. Please, put your mind to work. Evaluate the things that matter most to you. And cast your vote.
