Thank you all for standing up against horse slaughter. Please put an end to BLM round ups and let the 50,000 wild horses in holding pens free. I do believe Mustang Monument would take a good percentage of them. After all the good horses have done for us,…pulling our wagons, coaches, plows, carrying soldiers into battle, and giving so much enjoyment and inspiration to the people who soar over fences or race around a track with them. We are blessed to have them in our world. Please put an end to the inhumane treatment of all horses. Stop horse slaughter.

It is with great hope that the permanent stop to horse slaughter is reached. Take you hands out of your wallets, horse blood money will not solve anything.

To slaughter a horse is to throw away equine business, dump unfit drugged meat into a black market pipeline, encourage torture of horses, create an unnecessary unclean disease potential for equines, allow abuse and neglect owners a financial reward and a way out of their crimes, distribute known cancer causing drugs in food, disrupt legitimate markets such as the European Horsemeat Scandal and cost consumers/taxpayers millions of dollars of waste tracing and tracking or inspecting something we don’t eat. We need to STOP SUBSIDIZING a few hundred horse killers that risk ruining the safety of our US food supplies and economy.

I hope that horse slaughter never comes back, but something has to be done about he horses that are left to starve, becausse people run out of hay and no funds to buy more if it was available

I thought Congress passed, and Obama signed, a bill back in Nov 2011 lifting the ban on horse slaughter? Does the SAFE Act seek to reverse that?
And why is there no Florida govt official among the sponsors or supporters? Here in Florida, we have immigrants slaughtering peoples horses ALIVE in their barns and paddocks, leaving the legs and head (sometimes a dead foal) for the poor owners to find, and local officials and police just aren’t doing enough to stop it because “they’re just horses.” Law enforcement here is mainly concerned with the drug war and most other crime is of less concern.
