Last Hope For Horses
Equine welfare organizations across the nation, including SFSPCA Horse Rescue, denounce the outrageous actions of three legislators (Rep. Jack Kingston (R-GA), Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO) and Sen. Herb Kohl (D-WI), who in a closed door process stripped the language from the Agriculture Appropriations bill that prevented equine slaughter for human consumption in the U.S. President Obama signed the bill into law on Nov. 18th 2011, thereby legalizing the practice for the first time since 2005.
