Friend,
We’re horrified. Right now, loyal, loving horses are being trucked to foreign slaughterhouses—and the clock is ticking in our fight to end this cruelty once and for all. Horses are known for their strength and power, but the fact is that they’re skittish animals who need reassurance and care. That makes their last moments in slaughterhouses that much more horrifying as both their anatomy and instinctual flight response to danger means they rarely experience a quick or painless death.
The Humane Society Legislative Fund is fighting to end horse slaughter by passing the Save America's Forgotten Equines (SAFE) Act (H.R.3475/S.2037), which would permanently ban domestic horse slaughter in the U.S. and stop the export of American horses for slaughter abroad. But we must raise $50,000 before April 30 to advance this crucial work. Will you make a gift of $20 or more to HSLF now before the clock runs out for vulnerable animals who need us?
Horses deserve so much better than this. But Congress won’t make animal welfare a priority unless we ramp up our advocacy efforts, and right now we’re falling short of what we need to raise before our end-of-month deadline! So please:
Can we count on you to make a gift before our deadline on April 30 to help hit our crucial $50,000 fundraising goal and continue our lifesaving work for animals?
