The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: For the second year in a row, a dangerous provision has reappeared in the President’s budget proposal. If enacted, the FY27 budget language could open the door to outcomes for wild horses and burros that Americans overwhelmingly oppose:

• Allow the transfer of wild horses to foreign countries, including those with active slaughter industries
• Remove the long-standing ban on the killing of healthy wild horses and burros

TAKE ACTION: Tell Congress to reject this proposal → This should alarm everyone who cares about the future of America’s wild herds, Meredith. Last year, advocates like you helped stop similar language from moving forward. Together, we made it clear: the American public does not support slaughter, and we do not support sending wild horses out of the country to face uncertain and inhumane outcomes. Now, the threat is back. And once again, Congress needs to hear from you. AWHC is already working alongside partners at Animal Welfare Institute and bipartisan champions in Congress to ensure these protections are restored. But public pressure will be critical to winning this fight again. The solution is not mass removal or slaughter. It’s humane fertility control, paired with responsible stewardship of our public lands — an approach that is proven, cost-effective, and scalable. This is the future we should be investing in. But first, we need to stop this proposal in its tracks. Meredith, will you act now to protect America’s wild herds by calling on your elected officials to reject this proposal? TAKE ACTION We’ve done this before — and we can do it again. Thank you for standing with America’s wild horses and burros, American Wild Horse Conservation ...

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: The first roundups of 2026 have already taken place. Wild horses have been captured. Families broken apart. Operations carried out with little time for the public to respond. And now, a far larger number are still ahead. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) plans to remove 14,830 wild horses and burros this year—many immediately after foaling season, when families are most vulnerable. This is the moment—before those operations escalate—where we can still intervene. Your donation provides AWHC with the resources necessary to fight back. PROTECT WILD HORSES → Because once large-scale roundups begin, they move fast: Helicopters push horses to exhaustion as they chase them for miles, foals struggle to keep up, and horses of all ages lose their freedom forever. That’s why AWHC exists, Meredith. We are: On the Ground: Deploying observers to document roundups and expose the truth In the Courts: Challenging unlawful actions and fighting for stronger protections On the Range: Expanding humane fertility control to prevent future roundups In Washington: Advocating for policy reforms that end this broken system This work is urgent. And it’s happening right now. But it depends on the support of people who refuse to look away. Because what happens next—for this generation of wild horses—is still being decided.

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: Right now, across the American West, new life is taking its first steps. Foals are being born on the range—staying close to their mothers, learning how to move with the herd, experiencing their first days of freedom. This should be a season of hope. But this year, it isn’t. Because even before foaling season began, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) quietly carried out multiple “emergency” roundups—removing wild horses with little notice and limited oversight from the public lands they call home. And now, a much larger wave is coming. The federal government’s 2026 plan calls for 14,830 wild horses and burros to be removed from the range this year. PROTECT WILD HORSES → Foals will be born into active roundup zones, pregnant mares are at risk of being chased and captured, and families could be separated during the most vulnerable moment of their lives We’ve already seen how this plays out. That’s why AWHC is already in the fight—right now:

• Documenting roundups the public is meant to miss
• Challenging unlawful removals in court
• Pressuring the government for transparency and accountability
• Expanding humane fertility control to stop this cycle at its source

But this work only continues with support from people like you, Meredith. DONATE NOW Because every foal born this season deserves the chance to grow up wild—not be swept into a broken system before their life has even begun. With gratitude, American Wild Horse Conservation ...
