Help Reinstate Protection for Wild Horses and Burros!

Last year, the Burns Amendment to the Wild Free-Roaming Horse and Burro Act opened the door to the slaughter of thousands of wild horses. This amendment was inserted in a must-pass appropriations bill, and forced the Bureau of Land Management to allow individuals and corporations to buy these animals and resell them for slaughter. Selling and transferring wild horses and burros for processing into commercial products was illegal for 33 years before passage of the Burns Amendment—but now, these historically significant creatures may be slaughtered so their meat can be offered on foreign menus.

Please send a letter urging your representative to stop the needless slaughter of wild horses and burros by supporting and cosponsoring H.R. 249.
