“We Must Now Fight Horse Slaughter State by State! The Horse New Slaughterers’ Strategy is Now Clear State legislators have been introducing pro horse slaughter resolutions on behalf of foreign investors anxious to defeat H.R. 503. These resolutions and bills are a not-so-subtle ploy by the foreign investors that own horse slaughter houses to defeat H.R. 503 which would ban the sale, transport, and possession of horses in interstate and foreign commerce for slaughter for human consumption. Even without H.R. 503, horse slaughter cannot occur legally in the U.S. There is no point in states appropriating tax dollars for studies when currently horse slaughter for human consumption is not allowed in the U.S. These resolutions will simply insure horse slaughterers can continue to take American horses to Mexico or Canada for slaughter. The number of states taking part is alarming. They are: Arizona, Utah, Missouri, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, Kansas, Arkansas, Minnesota, Montana, and Illinois.” -SHARK
