ADVOCACY WIN ANNOUNCEMENT:
You helped push Congress to protect wild horses and burros.
Will you chip in today to keep the momentum going? [[link removed]]

Jack — Thanks to your advocacy, the House Appropriations Committee has taken a powerful stand to protect America’s wild horses and burros.

We wanted to share this important update with you — so you can celebrate this hard-won victory and help us gear up for the next phase of the fight to protect America’s wild horses from slaughter.

WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE:

The President’s proposed budget for next year would have made it easier for wild horses to be sent to slaughter, taken away key protections that have kept them safe for years, and cut funding for their care by 25%.

WHAT HAPPENED TODAY:

The House Appropriations Committee pushed back hard against the budget proposal. They restored the ban on killing healthy wild horses or selling them for slaughter, stopped a dangerous plan that could have allowed horses to be funneled to slaughter through third parties, and made sure funding for their protection stayed in place. They also demanded stricter oversight from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

We are especially grateful to Representatives Juan Ciscomani and Mark Pocan for their leadership on the Appropriations Committee to ensure wild horses and burros are protected from slaughter and that humane management is prioritized in the final bill.

WHAT COMES NEXT:

The fight isn’t over yet. The bill still needs to pass the full House, clear the Senate, and undergo final negotiations. We’re working closely with allies in Congress to keep the pressure on — and to make sure wild horses are protected not just in name, but in practice.

These victories only happen when we raise our voices together — and when we have the resources to keep showing up on Capitol Hill.

Together, we can push for a future where these iconic animals roam free, not disappear into holding pens or slaughter pipelines. Will you donate now to help us keep up the fight? [[link removed]]

Onward,
