Bill would reinstate protection of wild horses-- please help!!
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 09:04 PM by ailsagirl
Dear Friends of Wild Horses,

We have just gotten word that a bill is being introduced into Congress for reinstating the protections previously afforded to America's wild horses and burros. This BILL will stop the proposed slaughter of more than 8,000 wild horses!

WE NEED YOU TO ACT IMMEDIATELY BY:

* Write and e-mail and phone your Representative and Senators and ask
that they SUPPORT HR 297 presented by the Honorable Rep Nick J. Rahall
(D-WY).
* Let Representative Rahall know how thrilled you are that he has
taken action to save America's icon, the wild horses and burros.
* Let them know that wild horses and burros are the great symbol of
our country and represent the freedom we so cherish. Let them know you want them protected from slaughter FOREVER.
* We are asking that you pass this on to as many people as possible to write.

and keep kicked
:)

3. Will do. Save the wild horses. I am for responsible dominion
not arrogant domination. We need to care for all life. Glad to hear about this proposal.

4. Great news.
As a horse person I am thrilled by this. I doubt there will be much help from my Rep and Senators but I will write them anyway. This is such good news, there is still hope for these wonderful animals.

10. Absolutely. This seems simple/safe enough
for my congressmen to deal with. Though they may not be too happy to hear from me again given all the screeching I've been doing lately, including the rant about Conrad Burns slimy inclusion of his despicable legislation in the intel bill - the POS.
