[FoA] ACTION ALERT: CLOUD CAPTURED - PLEASE HELP THESE HORSES

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PLEASE FORWARD FAR AND WIDE

 

 

 

 

By now you have all heard about the round up of the Pryor Range horses and that Cloud has been captured. It is heartbreaking but we must take action. This is new information I have received that is very helpful in what to say when you make the calls. I am cutting and pasting to make it more concise I did not write it.

 

Maybe Cloud will be returned (maybe) but the other horses will be sold and that means slaughter. We need EVERYONE to pitch in and make the calls. If the lines are busy - try again later.

 

People to call – read talking points below first:

- President Obama and VP Biden – 202-456-9000 and 202-456-1111

- White House switchboard number is 202-456-1414 – call your Senators and Congressmen

- Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel's number is 202-456-6798.

- Michelle Obama's number is 202-456-7064.

- BLM Director Abbey - 202-208-3801

 

 

These talking points will help in a couple of ways: 1) they should help you stay on track when you make your calls. Bold sentences are your main point. Supporting stuff is underneath each main point.

 

2) When you make calls, you will have limited time to make your case and this should help...even if you leave it on a voice mail at a TV station.

 

3) We will be a unified voice. It will be easier for us to be recognized in our message if we are saying the same things....over and over and over again.

 

TALKING POINTS – choose one or two

 

Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Range Gather, herd of PBS', Cloud, wild stallion of the Rockies - Release Cloud the stallion's herd and all the others back to their home

We demand the release of the wild horses that have been illegally torn away from their home in the Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Range, designated as such in 1968 for the purpose of legally declaring this Federal land as wild horse range. Put the wild horses already gathered back where they belong. The BLM has removed them illegally. They have a home-the 38,000 acres of rangeland in the Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Range. The Cloud Foundation is working on a plan b, but the horses need to go back to their home. The Cloud Foundation is working on keeping the horses and the family bands intact These families are well-known to all and we do not want to see them torn apart.

We will never give up on the wild horses, especially these. This herd is the last of a line that is the lineage of the horses of the Spanish Conquistadors. BLM is wiping away their genetic viability. This herd is too special to lose. It is our heritage Bureau of Land Management is operating autonomously, against the will of Congress and Americans, ignoring massive public outcry and the law. They do not respond to FOIA requests, phone calls, letters and even a direct letter from the chairman of the Congressional subcommittee on public lands to suspend what they are doing and show their plans. An audit is needed to reign in this rogue government agency. Americans are being lied to by BLM; being duped into believing that this gather and others are "necessary," when there is plenty of open range. (BLM has in many cases fenced horses away from essential water and then used the word "necessary" when they died of thirst.)

You can't leave a message at President Obama's number but you can email.

 

 

E-mail President Obama

You can leave a message for the BLM through Salazar's number.

202-208-3100 press 5 and leave a message telling them to stop the roundup of the Pryor Mountain Wild Horses immediately.

You can leave a message for BLM Director Abbey. They tell you to call another number but leave a message anyway.

202-208-3801

This is the number Abbey's office tells you to call. A lady named Debbie answers and will argue with you for 20 minutes if you have the time.

866-468-7826
