About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

President Obama just signed into law a bill that would lift regulations on horse slaughtering plants. With that bill, he also made it legal again for human consumption of horse meat. This is all despite 70% of American citizens being against this.

We need to ask Speaker Boehner, Majority Leader Reid, and the President to repeal this law, now! We have much more pressing matters to decide than pass bills about horse meat.

Repeal the Horse Slaughter law!

You all just signed into law a bill that would lift regulations on horse slaughtering plants. With that bill, you also made it legal again for the human consumption of horse meat. This is all despite 70% (possibly more) of American citizens being against this.

We are asking you, Speaker Boehner, Majority Leader Reid, and President Obama, to repeal this law, now! We have much more pressing matters to decide than pass bills about horse meat.

Sincerely,

[Your name]
