Please help to end Horse Slaughter, by signing ....
this petition: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/631181096

In 2006, the House voted to ban horse slaughter for human consumption with a vote of 263 to 146, but yet the Senate ignored thousands upon thousands of faxes, phone calls and letters to bring S. 1915 to a vote. Americans want horse slaughter to end now!

Horse Slaughter is the ultimate betrayal. We teach our horses to trust us and then send them to a horrific, barbaric death. The horsemeat does not feed hungry people, but is served as a "delicacy" in France, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium and Japan. Americans do not eat horsemeat!

Sadly, they love foal meat the best.

These foregn-owned slaughter houses don't even pay any taxes. One in Texas paid $5 in 2005!

Thank you,
