SHUT DOWN HORSE SLAUGHTER PLANTS FOR GOOD
This week will be a make-or-break time in Congress for horses.
Didn't we already do this, you may be wondering. Well, almost.
Three horse slaughter plants in the United States, all foreign owned, have been shut down...for now.
But horse slaughter is not yet banned in the United States, and it is still legal to send U.S. horses out of the country for slaughter, where they face longer transports and an even more grisly death.
Starting on Tuesday morning, April 24
everyone who cares about ending horse slaughter needs to call Congress Here's why: On Wednesday, April 25, the Senate Commerce Committee will voteon S. 311, the American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act. YourU.S. Senator must hear from you to protect horses from slaughter.
Please call and urge support for S. 311.
When you make your call, you can say: "Hello, my name is [yourname] and I'm calling from [your state] to urge Senator ___ to protect American horses from ending up on the menu in foreignrestaurants by voting YES on S. 311."
