Learn more about Deb Haaland

Deb Haaland, the first Native American to serve as Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior, has been a pivotal advocate for the protection of wild horses and burros. Her leadership is crucial in reforming the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) approach to wild horse management, emphasizing humane solutions like PZP fertility control over inhumane roundups and surgical sterilizations. Under her guidance, the American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC) anticipates a shift towards science-based management practices that prioritize the welfare of these iconic animals. Haaland's commitment to preserving America's public lands and wildlife aligns with the values of the AWHC and the majority of Americans who support the humane treatment of wild horses.
