Jack,

We have exciting news to share! Today, U.S. Representative Dina Titus (D-NV), alongside Reps. Steve Cohen (D-TN) and Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ), co-chairs of the bipartisan Wild Horse Caucus, introduced the Wild Horse and Burro Protection Act of 2025, a groundbreaking bill that would reform the cruel and costly federal wild horse program.

This legislation calls for:

✅ A phase-out of helicopter roundups within two years
✅ The immediate installation of cameras on helicopters to bring long-overdue transparency to BLM operations
✅ A Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigation into humane alternatives, including how they could create new jobs and reduce harm to wild horses

These reforms are urgently needed. Just last summer, AWHC observers documented a BLM contractor kicking and punching a collapsed wild horse. If we hadn’t been there, the cruelty would’ve remained hidden. Cameras will ensure the public sees what happens behind the scenes.

TAKE ACTION

This bill reflects the power of your voice — more than 100,000 of you have signed our Halt the Helicopters petition, and 64,000 have demanded cameras on helicopters used for roundups. Now, Congress is listening.

Take Action now and ask your Member of Congress to cosponsor this important legislation.

Let’s keep the momentum going. Together, we can protect our wild horses and build a future where cruelty is no longer the cost of management.

— The AWHC Team
