You can keep horses SAFE

These horses are on their way to be slaughtered.

Some will die along the way.

The SAFE Act would ban horse slaughter and prohibit the export of horses for slaughter...

Which would save the lives of thousands of horses each year.

No animal deserves to suffer like this – to die like this.

Tell your senator, you stand with horses and want them kept SAFE.

Multiple foals, dead from the harsh elements and no access to shelter, discarded in the open... their bodies torn apart by scavengers just days after birth.

That’s what we witnessed at a kill buyer feedlot, and sadly, it’s just one example of the abuse and neglect we’ve witnessed this year. All year, Animals’ Angels has been carrying out specific horse slaughter investigations with the goal of presenting a full and in-depth, up-to-date overview of this industry to the US Senate. The investigations were carried out at key auctions, kill buyer feedlots, and slaughter plants as well as during transit, to document what a horse trapped in the slaughter pipeline endures. In addition to our investigations, AA has also conducted extensive research into official documents received from US, Canadian and Mexican authorities, which has also revealed horrific shortcomings both in animal protection as well as food safety.

We hope our report on the abuse, neglect, and murder that is happening to America’s horses will convince the US Senate to pass the SAFE Act and eliminate this predatory industry for good. But as we investigate, there is something you can do to help. We need you to demand that the US Senate pass the SAFE Act today, permanently banning horse slaughter in the US and prohibiting the export of horses for slaughter in other countries.

This is one of the most effective ways we can protect American horses. Now is the time to put pressure on Congress and get the SAFE Act passed.

Pass the SAFE act now

Dear Senator,

Enough is enough. I'm adding my name to this petition from Animals’ Angels to demand that you sign the SAFE Act. We need to permanently ban horse slaughter in the US and prohibit kill buyers from exporting horses to other countries for slaughter.

Animals’ Angels conducts investigations across the country to document abuse and neglect of horses and other animals. They’ve seen first hand the terrible conditions horses have to endure on their way to slaughter from broken limbs and contagious diseases to foals, dead from the harsh elements and discarded in the open with their bodies torn apart by scavengers. At a slaughter plant in Canada, Animals’ Angels found that horses were being left to die without assistance overnight. At the same slaughter plant, downer horses were pulled off the trailer with a rope tied around their neck and dragged. No animal deserves to suffer or die like that, but these kill buyers don’t care about animals; they care about only one thing – profit.

Horses helped build our country. They helped build our railroads and were essential to early agriculture. Now, we discard them as if they have no value. If you don’t pass the SAFE Act, you are enabling the horrific abuse, suffering, and murder of thousands of living, breathing beings. Please pass the SAFE act now!

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]
