Action on Wild Horse Protection Bill Wednesday!
Urge Representative McMorris Rogers to Vote Yes
Dear Sheri,
On Wednesday, March 7, a federal bill (H.R. 249) to restore protections for wild horses from commercial sale and slaughter will be brought up for a vote in the House Natural Resources Committee. Your U.S. Representative, Cathy McMorris Rogers, serves on this committee and needs to hear from supporters of the bill. Please take action and help this important bill clear its first hurdle.
Call Representative McMorris Rogers at (202) 225-2006 today and express your support for restoring protections for our wild horses from commercial sale and slaughter. The lives of 8,400 horses depend on our success.
Congress originally passed the Wild Free-Roaming Horse and Burro Act in 1971 to protect our wild horses, but in 2004 this protection was gutted. In a midnight maneuver by then-Senator Conrad Burns (Mont.). He slipped a few unnoticed lines into a massive spending bill, overturning 30 years of protections for wild horses. Senator Burns was booted from office last November and it's time to win these protections back.
TAKE ACTION!
Please make a brief polite phone call to Representative Cathy McMorris Rogers at (202) 225-2006 today. Making a phone call is easy. All you have to say is:
"Hello, my name is [your name] and I am a constituent from [your city]. I strongly support H.R. 249, legislation to restore protection for our wild horses from commercial sale and slaughter, and I respectfully urge Representative Snyder to support this critical piece of legislation that will be considered this week by the Natural Resources Committee. It's time to pass this legislation and save the more than 8,400 wild horses who are in immediate danger. Thank you."
