Urge Congress to Ban Horse Slaughter in the U.S.Urge Congress to Ban Horse Slaughter in the U.S.

The American Wild Horse Conservation (formerly American Wild Horse Campaign) is calling on all supporters to take action against the cruel practice of horse slaughter and export in the United States. Despite public opposition, horse slaughter remains a threat to America's wild horses and burros. It's time to urge Congress to enact a permanent ban.

Why a Ban is Necessary

Horse slaughter is not only inhumane but also poses significant risks to the health and safety of horses. The process is brutal, and many horses suffer immensely during transport and slaughter. Additionally, horse meat is not safe for human consumption due to the drugs commonly administered to horses throughout their lives.

Current Legislation

Currently, there are bills in Congress that aim to ban horse slaughter and export for slaughter. These bills need your support to move forward. By contacting your representatives, you can help ensure these bills receive the attention they deserve.

How You Can Help

  • Contact your local representatives and urge them to support the ban on horse slaughter and export.
  • Spread the word on social media using the hashtag #BanHorseSlaughter.
  • Support organizations like the American Wild Horse Conservation in their efforts to protect wild horses and burros.

By taking action, you can help protect America's wild horses and burros from the threat of slaughter and ensure their safety for generations to come.
