There are a lot of people who are trying hard to rescue and rehabilitate horses that are unwanted, neglected, or abused. They will be accumulating older unadoptable horses that will stay with them and live the remainder of their lives happily.

Hi, everyone.

Three foreign-owned horse slaughter plants here in the USA are killing American horses. They kill the horses, harvest the meat, and then ship it overseas. Me and some friends are asking people to send an email to their senators asking them to push this bill through and vote to end horse slaughtering.

Go to http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/ and type in your zip code. Send an email to both of your US senators and tell them to stop horse slaughtering. The vote is coming before the Senate in early October so please do it NOW! :-) Thanks!!!

And here is a blog that we set up so you can read more information about it:
