Americans oppose horse slaughter which is cruel, gruesome and horrific. Yet, each year tens of thousands of American horses and burros -- including our beloved wild horses and burros -- are sent to slaughter in Mexico and Canada (and beyond). A recent New York Times investigative article exposed the Bureau of Land Management's ill-conceived program of paying people to adopt wild horses and burros sent these precious and defenseless animals into the slaughter pipeline.

The House of Representatives recently passed the Carter-Fitzpatrick amendment to the Infrastructure bill known as the Invest In America Act (H.R. 3684) which will prohibit the transport of equines across state borders. Now the Senate must also pass this amendment before the President can sign it into law. Prohibiting the transport of equines across state lines for slaughter will effectively end horse and burro slaughter in our country.
