EMAIL CONGRESS HERE to Keep HORSES from being shipped abroad for SLAUGHTER! 100,000 American Horses Slaughtered Every Year for Horse Meat in Europe!

Did you know that more than 100,000 American horses are slaughtered every year to satisfy the market for horse meat in Europe and Asia? Act now to keep horses from being shipped abroad for slaughter. » The last U.S. horse slaughter plants were closed in 2007, but unwanted American horses are still shipped to Canada and Mexico to feed markets overseas. Horses deserve a more dignified end to their lives than to be inhumanely slaughtered and served for dinner. The Prevention of Equine Cruelty Act will end this practice by prohibiting the transport of America's horses to foreign countries for slaughter. Please contact your representative now and urge him or her to cosponsor and support H.R. 503! » Take action link: http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AFlAC/zjXY/K3c0 Thanks for taking action!

Due to overcrowded transport conditions, many horses are injured even before reaching their final destination. Forward to a friend >> Read the petition >>
