The Horse Protection Act has served its purpose and is outdated. Lasting reform is needed in equine welfare governance.
Misapplying industrial livestock production standards imposes undue burdens on recreational and competitive horse venues and hands powerful tools to NGOs and other entities seeking to shutter them.
Dear Opponent of Humane Horse Processing... We understand that you want each and every unwanted horse to remain within the borders of our beautiful nation, alive and well! The "alive and well" part is where YOU come in.
Western Justice is committed to advancing practical, science-based animal welfare policy that respects both property rights and due process. We urge the USDA and members of Congress to review this briefing in consideration of modernizing federal equine policy by returning welfare authority to the states and supporting voluntary, industry-led welfare programs.
