U.S. CONGRESS – U.S. Senator Steve Daines and Congressman Greg Gianforte today sent a letter to the CEO of Google, Mr. Sundar Pichai, demanding Google reverse its prohibition on hunting advertising.
“We therefore demand you reverse these prohibitions and request that Google reexamine their policy interpretations on prohibiting hunting promotions,” the letter states. “We also request a meeting to discuss the importance of Montana’s and the United States’ hunting heritage.”

Daines’ and Gianforte’s letter comes in response to Montana’s Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) having its hunting advertisement rejected by Google. In Google’s response to RMEF, a Google employee claims the advertisement is considered “animal cruelty and deemed inappropriate to be shown on our network.” To download Google’s email to RMEF, click HERE.
