Wild Horses and Burros Need Our Voices Now More Than Ever Before
This page will give you the instructions on how to contact your legislators and the letters and information we want to send to them. But we all need help! Get your spouse, partner, kids, family, friends, classrooms, book groups, writing groups, yoga class, and riding clubs involved! Every letter counts and the only way Congress will listen is if they receive thousands of letters and postcards. Can we do it? Velma Johnston aka Wild Horse Annie did. So I hope we can too!
Step 1 is listed below - start with that and get prepared.
Watch for Step 2, tips, and the letters to send in soon.
Wild horses need our voices - let's make it happen!

Step 1: Get Prepared
Get the name of your U.S. Representative and both of your U.S. Senators. These are the U.S. Members of Congress. You can do one of two things to get that information. Go here: www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative and here: www.senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm
or
google a phrase such as who is my US Representative (or Senators) for Phoenix, AZ (or whatever your city and state is)
• Go to their website and write down their DC office mailing address and the office mailing address located in your state (sometimes they might have more than one, choose the one in the largest town), their DC and local state phone numbers and fax numbers if you have access to a fax machine.
• Note where their Contact Me page is on their website
• If you live in a state or area with wild horses and/or burros, then also make note of your local state legislators including your State Senator and Assembly person.
• Then call each office and ask which aide or staffer you can address issues of public lands, wildlife and wild horses & burros with. Ask for their email address. (Remember the aides or staffers are often young people in their 20's and are more than happy to have nice people to talk to!). If there is no staffer for public lands or wildlife, then ask who would be the best to send information about animal issues to.
