Help Save Horses


Help Horses Clear Final Hurdle

On Sept. 27 in Missouri, 17 of the 41 horses headed to a slaughter plant in Illinois were killed when the trailer they were being transported in overturned on the highway. Just three weeks earlier, on Sept. 7, the U.S. House voted
263-146 to pass the American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act (H.R. 503), moving the country closer to preventing the annual slaughter of nearly 100,000 horses in the United States for human consumption abroad.


Now it's time for the Senate to act on behalf of America's horses.
