Congressmen Andy Barr (R-KY) and Paul Tonko (D-NY) have been named co-chairs of the Congressional Horse Caucus in the 113th Congress. They replace Congressmen Dennis Cardoza (D-CA) and Brett Guthrie (R-KY).

“Congressman Cardoza and Guthrie were great co-chairs of the Caucus and we are grateful for all their work on behalf of the horse community,” said AHC president Jay Hickey. “We are happy to have Congressmen Barr and Tonka as the new co-chairs. They both represent districts that are important to the horse industry and we are lucky to have their leadership in the 113th Congress.”

The Congressional Horse Caucus is a bipartisan group of House of Representatives members formed to educate Congress and their staffs about the importance of the horse industry in the economic, agricultural, sporting, gaming, and recreational life of the nation.

“I am honored to represent the ‘Horse Capital of the World’ and excited that I have been named co-chairman of the Congressional Horse Caucus,” said Barr, who represents Lexington, Kentucky’s Second Congressional District
