This is our last chance to speak out to protect our wild horses!! The Senate Appropriations Committee will be marking up their version of the Interior bill. Right now, an amendment in the House version of the bill allows for HEALTHY wild horses and burros to be killed by BLM or their contractors. The Interior bill also contains language that allows the transfer of wild horses and burros to other government agencies, and when they are transferred they lose their status as wild horses and burros, opening up the door to being sold for slaughter. The Senate Committee could be meeting as early as this week, so it's important to contact them ASAP. Contact information is below. Without our input, our horses WILL be destroyed by the government and they WILL be transferred to agencies that will send them to slaughter.
