Got it. Here are the relevant bits: "Hope has been called on to testify in Washington so many times that she knows the senators by their first names," says New York businessman Hugh Paulk, a friend of Ryden's for 25 years. [many paragraphs omitted] Ryden's testimony before Congress helped to pass a 1971 bill "protecting wild free roaming horses and burros." When the act was challenged, she defended the law before the Supreme Court and its constitutionality was upheld. I'll add something to the article in a minute. EEng22:16, 25 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
