Biden to Sign Bill Restoring Funds for School Shooting Sports

The White House confirmed Biden will sign bipartisan legislation reversing his administration's decision to defund school shooting sports programs.
The bill ensures elementary and secondary school hunting and archery programs can continue receiving federal funds.
The Biden administration had interpreted a 2022 gun law as restricting funding for such programs.
The new legislation passed Congress almost unanimously, with bipartisan support.
Lawmakers argued the administration's decision threatened longstanding hunting and shooting sports traditions and safety courses.
