Please join us for a special webinar on the fight to end horse slaughter, from the introduction of the first federal bill to ban it to where it stands now — and what you can do to help.
The webinar will feature Chris Heyde, Return to Freedom’s Capitol Hill representative on horse slaughter as well as our ongoing advocacy for more humane and sustainable wild horse and burro management on our public lands. He introduced the first federal bill to ban horse slaughter and has spearheaded the effort ever since.
The last domestic horse slaughter plant closed in 2007. Advocates like Return to Freedom have successfully worked every year since to keep new slaughterhouses from opening. Tragically, however, some 21,000 American equines annually are bought on the cheap at auction by kill buyers who ship them to Mexican and Canadian slaughterhouses.
The bipartisan Save America’s Forgotten Equines (SAFE) Act would finally shut down that slaughter pipeline. It would also impose a lasting ban on horse slaughter in the United States.
Return to Freedom has been active on this issue since our inception, pushing for a slaughter ban while playing a role in the rescue of more than 2,500 at-risk wild horses and burros.
