The National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) 2020 Legislative Action Campaign (LAC) Annual Report is now available on the association's website and can be downloaded here.

The report reviews the NTRA's federal legislative activities in 2020 and the fundraising programs that support them. Specifically, the report includes:

 

  • A federal legislative summary of issues that are important to horse racing and breeding, including the latest on the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act, Sports Betting, Three-year Racehorse Depreciation, Immigration and other legislation;

 

  • A list of 2020 contributors to the NTRA's Legislative Action Campaign through the 1/4% Check-Off Program and other related NTRA fundraising programs;

 

  • Sale company calendars; and

 

  • Member discount information from NTRA partners like John Deere, Sherwin-Williams, Office Depot and Big Ass Fans

 

“We thank the buyers, sellers and consignors who supported our federal legislative advocacy in 2020 by participating in the 1/4% Check-Off Program through sales hosted by our partners at Keeneland, Fasig-Tipton, Ocala Breeders Sales (OBS), the Washington Thoroughbred Breeders and Owners Association (WTBOA) and the California Thoroughbred Breeders Association (CTBA),” said NTRA President and CEO Alex Waldrop. “We appreciate these sale companies for all they do to help facilitate the Check-Off Program and we also thank the farms, breeders and National Horseplayers Championship (NHC) Tour members who contributed through other fundraising programs. It was a difficult year in many ways but, once again, the industry rallied in support of our efforts on Capitol Hill.”
