AQHA PUBLIC POLICY

POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE

The time to ensure the future of the horse industry is upon us! By now, we trust you're aware that the American Quarter Horse Association has made a commitment to lead the equine industry through the tough world of public policy. Now, more than ever, government at the city, state and federal level is scrutinizing horse ownership and the way we manage our horses. As a result, it has become necessary to take on a more active role in the political, legislative and regulatory processes.

To guarantee the horse industry's voice is heard in Washington, D.C., we must cultivate stronger relationships with members of Congress. That's why AQHA has formed a Political Action Committee to help establish those vital relationships.

CURRENT LEGISLATION

H.R. 503 / S. 1915 - The American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act
