Save America’s Wild Horses – Stop Trump's Slaughter Plan Now

The Issue

America’s iconic wild horses and burros are in grave danger.

The Trump Administration’s latest budget proposal slashes funding for the Bureau of Land Management’s Wild Horse and Burro Program by 25%. And worse, it opens the door to mass slaughter.

Over 64,000 federally protected horses and burros could be killed simply because it’s cheaper than protecting them.

This isn’t just bad policy, it’s cruelty. Plain and simple.

Most Americans—80%—want these animals protected, not rounded up, penned, and killed. Humane alternatives like fertility control and habitat restoration are available, effective, and supported by science and public opinion. Yet this budget does the unthinkable: it revives a long-rejected plan to kill the very animals our government is legally required to safeguard.

We can’t let this happen.

Tell Congress to reject this heartless proposal. Tell them to increase funding for humane management, stop roundups, and protect wild horses and burros from slaughter.

These animals belong to all of us. Let’s be their voice before it’s too late.

Sign now to demand Congress protect America’s wild horses.
