As you know, America’s wild horses and burros are under constant threat of brutal helicopter roundups and loss of their freedom on public lands. But the American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC) is making meaningful progress in Washington D.C. to secure a brighter future for these iconic animals. Your contributions to our Policy and Litigation Fund are driving real change and helping us fight for the protections they deserve.
Here are a few examples of transformative legislation AWHC has worked to advance in 2024:
We work tirelessly to build bipartisan support in Congress that protects America’s wild horses and burros. Through this intentional coalition-building and strategic advocacy, we’ve achieved meaningful victories for America’s wild herds.
One notable success is securing language in both the House and Senate's Fiscal Year 2024 spending bills that advances humane fertility control programs and directs up to $11 million in federal funding away from inhumane roundups.
As you can see, Jack, our government relations work is critical, but it takes significant resources to keep our momentum up. With 2025 shaping up to be a pivotal year — and with the BLM planning to round up more than 11,000 wild horses and burros — we need your support now more than ever.
Will you help us reach our $200,000 goal by midnight on December 31?
Your contribution to our Policy and Litigation Fund supports:
- Lobbying efforts on Capitol Hill.
- Advocacy for humane, science-based solutions like fertility control.
- Grassroots campaigns to amplify public pressure on Congress.
- And more…
Together, we can ensure that America’s cherished wild herds have a future free from cruelty and government mismanagement. Will you stand with us in this fight?
Together we can make change,
Team AWHC
