Back in 2014 Anne Novak discovered Rep. Stewart's Wild Horse Oversight Act that would jeopardize the safety of wild horses and burros based on an overpopulation lie. She immediately contacted the press to get the word out to the public. Here are some samples of viral articles regarding Stewart's bill: Rep. Chris Stewart's Wild Horse Oversight Act, is a bill to allow states and tribal governments to gain authority over all regulations pertaining to horses and burros on lands within their boundaries, introduced July 10, 2014 (AP) http://www.deseretnews.com/article/765656593/Bill-seeks-to-allow-states-to-manage-wild-horses.html Bay Area mustang advocate slams bill that would allow states, tribes to manage wild horses (CBS/AP) http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2014/07/12/bay-area-mustang-advocate-anne-novak-chris-stewart-blm-slams-bill-that-to-allow-states-tribes-to-manage-wild-horses/ Today Rep. Stewart's bill has come a long way. . . It seems his lobbying and "connections" have paid off. Now he has strong endorsements and backing in the House of Representatives and in the Senate. Stewart's amendments are attached to the 2017 Appropriations Bill that was approved by the House of Representatives this month. http://stewart.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/interior-department-funding-bill-passes-the-house-rep-stewart-s-critical Rep. Stewart (R-UT) seeks to reduce the number of wild horses in holding by turning them over to states, counties and cities that want them for work horses. They claim they won't go to slaughter. It's outrageous that wild horses should be forced into labor as work horses! Please send your 2 senators handwritten letters asking that Rep. Stewart's amendment for wild horses and burros to be struck from the Appropriations Bill. Let them know the truth: Overpopulation is a lie. All the wild horses need to be returned to public land.
