Protect America's horses from mass killing
America's beloved horses are facing multiple threats of slaughter and your U.S. Representative urgently needs to hear from you.
Over the past 20 years, the Bureau of Land Management’s failure to properly manage the Wild Horse and Burro Program has led the agency to focus solely on round-up and removal as a primary management strategy for wild horse and burro populations on America’s western rangelands. As a result, the agency now finds itself holding more than 45,000 wild horses and burros in holding facilities. This is the direct result of poor decisions made by government officials, and now the government wants to kill them to save money.
To make matters worse, a government spending bill would allow taxpayer dollars to fund slaughtering horses for human consumption. If language to defund horse slaughter inspections is not included in this bill, it will open the door to allow horrific horse slaughter plants in the U.S. If horse slaughter plants are opened in the U.S., it will pose a serious threat to public health and put the reputation of the U.S. agricultural industry at risk.
TAKE ACTION Please take a moment to call your U.S. Representative now and urge support for America's horses. Look up your legislator's phone number. You can say, "As your constituent, I urge you to prevent America’s wild horses and burros from being slaughtered, and to vote 'yes' on an amendment to the Agriculture Appropriations bill to keep horse slaughter plants out of the U.S."
After your call, use the form below to send a follow-up message. Editing your message will help it stand out.
