Safeguard American Food Exports (SAFE) ActThere are no horse slaughter facilities currently operating within the USA. However, every year approximately 80,000 American horses, donkeys and mules are live-transported to Canada and Mexico to be killed and butchered for human consumption.
If passed into federal law, the Safeguard American Food Exports (SAFE) Act would make it illegal to slaughter American equines for human consumption on U.S. soil or abroad. Violations of the law would be punishable by up to two years in prison. Please help put an end to equine slaughter once and for all. Contact your U.S. Representative and two U.S. Senators and urge them to cosponsor the SAFE Act. |
