Range riding won’t save a ranch. Compensation won’t save a ranch. Only honest, timely, decisive wolf management will.

Western Justice is committed to advancing practical, science-based animal welfare policy that respects both property rights and due process. We urge the USDA and members of Congress to review this briefing in consideration of modernizing federal equine policy by returning welfare authority to the states and supporting voluntary, industry-led welfare programs.

In Coulee City, Washington, a generational ranching family stands accused of crimes they didn’t commit—because the state decided to make an example of them. What began as a minor bureaucratic dispute has become a full-blown crusade, weaponizing environmental law against the very people who help feed America.

In 2023, sweeping changes to federal guidelines governing veterinary medications including the use of Winstrol (stanozolol), created unintended consequences that veterinarians who practice in critical care are still fighting to navigate. Now, Dr. Josh Harvey and his team at Outlaw Equine Veterinary Hospital are under fire for doing what they've always done: putting patient care first.

In recent months, via social media, several equine veterinarians have been subjected to an incredible volume of social pressure, scrutiny, and downright bullying. At Western Justice, we are committed to giving Outlaw Equine the space and support to share their full story, accurately, transparently, and free from agenda-driven narratives.

Western Justice stands with the 120+ wildlife, conservation, and land management organizations, representing millions of Americans, who are urging our federal leaders to uphold the law and restore ecological balance on our public lands. The health of these lands, and the survival of our native wildlife, depend on it.

Rosmarino has spent decades promoting the rewilding ideology that prioritizes the removal of livestock and the return of apex predators such as wolves and cougars to Western landscapes. Rewilding seeks to remove human influence from vast tracts of land across the nation. This movement has even celebrated hostile acquisitions of ranchland.

The federal government is trotting dangerously close to trampling your constitutional rights—under the guise of "protecting" horses. Horse owners, trainers, and event organizers across America should be alarmed by the 2025 version of the so-called Prevent All Soring Tactics (PAST) Act.

The 2025 PAST Act Bill and the Horse Protection Act New Rule share virtually identical regulations but differ mainly in permanence and enforceability. Both significantly expand federal oversight into horse shows, sales, exhibitions, and events far beyond just the Tennessee Walking Horse and Racking Horse breeds.

Instead of resorting to video vigilantism when there is a concern, people should follow the processes within equine associations and the laws that are already in place.

The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) has rebranded itself as Humane World for Animals.

FWW is not an advocacy group; it is a highly coordinated activist network working against the interests of farmers, ranchers, and consumers.

Society's perception and acceptance of an industry, with the central belief that an industry must have society's permission to operate

The horse industry faces one of the most consequential and potentially devastating turning points in recent history.

As the Feb 1, 2025, implementation date for the revised (HPA) looms over the horse industry, many wonder how they will be affected.

Animal extremist groups work feverishly to eliminate the use and enjoyment of horses, and now, a major equine organization is helping.
