- Congressional Letter Campaign
Senator Burns and his cronies believe that the public is beginning to lose interest in the wild horse issue. In fact they are counting on it. It is imperative that Congress recognizes that the American Public is still pursuing this issue.
Goals for this week: Everyone involved needs to phone and write his/her Congressional delegation and ask specifically what the Senators or Congressmen are doing about repealing the Burns Wild Horse Rider.
- Purchase a pack of pre-stamped postcards from the Post Office to make letter writing easy.
- Plan at least one "post card party" this week and motivate five additional people to send cards.
- Find the Washington, DC addresses and phone numbers for your Senators here:
Ask your elected representatives specifically what they are doing to repeal the Burns Wild Horse Sale Rider.
- Contact the Dept. of Interior
Phone and/or Write the Secretary of Interior Gayle Norton and demand that BLM stop withholding older horses
from adoption.
Secretary Gale Norton
Department of the Interior
1849 C St. NW
Washington, DC 20240
Phone: 202-208-3100
Fax: 202-208-6956
Ask the Secretary specifically what the department is doing to protect the older horses from slaughter and why they have been removed from adoption lists.
- Apply Economic Pressure
Support the Quit Beefin' beef boycott. If unhappy members of the beef industry are willing to support a boycott until the issue of public lands ranching versus wild horses is resolved, it is imperative that we support them.
