Good evening, Jack.

We are the voice of America’s wild horses and burros the courtroom, fighting tirelessly to protect these iconic animals from cruel and unlawful government actions. Thanks to your support, we’ve made remarkable progress in holding the Burea of Land Management (BLM) accountable through legal challenges — and our fight is far from over. 

Thanks to a generous matching gift, we have the opportunity to double every dollar you contribute this holiday season toward our $200,000 End-of-Year goal.

Your donation to our Policy and Litigation Fund empowers us to pursue justice for wild horses and burros in the courtroom and in Congress. Through litigation, we’ve already challenged the BLM’s harmful actions. Every contribution we receive before midnight on December 31 brings us closer to ensuring a future where these animals can roam free.

Here are a few examples of our recent legal victories and ongoing litigation efforts:

• Wyoming’s Checkerboard Area: For over a decade, we’ve been engaged in a hard-fought battle to prevent the BLM from eradicating wild horses from over two million acres of habitat in Wyoming. After a disappointing decision from the lower court, we quickly filed an appeal to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. Our legal team has laid out a compelling case, and we’re fighting to protect these herds and keep them free from unnecessary roundups.
   
• Devil’s Garden Wild Horse Territory: In California, we’ve filed an objection to a flawed management plan that continues to impose outdated population limits on the Devil’s Garden herd. This is an area where we’ve expanded habitat, yet the United States Forest Service (USFS) has failed to adjust its restrictions to reflect the increased resources available for these horses. This is just one example of how we’re taking action to ensure that wild horses are treated fairly and kept free from outdated, restrictive policies.
   
• FOIA Investigations: We also regularly use the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to investigate BLM policies and programs. With over a dozen active FOIA lawsuits against the agency, we’re demanding transparency and exposing abuse, fraud, and waste within federal programs affecting wild horses and burros.

Your support powers this vital work. The legal battles we fight are complex, time-consuming, and costly — but they are critical to the future of wild horses and burros across the West.

Will you support us in this fight? Your donation to our Policy and Litigation Fund will fuel these ongoing cases and ensure we have the resources to keep fighting for justice.
