AWI worked with Reps. Dina Titus (D-NV) and Steve Cohen (D-TN)—two stalwart champions for equine welfare—to denounce the Bureau of Land Management’s reckless plan to round up approximately 20,000 wild horses during fiscal year 2024. In a January letter to the head of the BLM, the lawmakers called attention to the agency’s plan to treat fewer wild horses with humane fertility control vaccines (critical to keeping horses on the range) than in fiscal year 2023 and underscored the “serious disconnect between Congressional direction and BLM’s actions.” (Click here for more on the fate of wild horses in captivity under BLM management.)
