It is highly unethical and appalling that the U.S. government approved horse slaughterhouses to produce meat for human consumption. While horse meat can't legally be sold in the USA for human consumption, it can be used in pet food. It may also turn up in the U.S. food supply despite its legal status because it can be sold to Mexico for human consumption, then re-labeled and shipped back into the USA for use as a low-cost meat filler. Our horses deserve better than that! We must put a stop to this! Horses are our friends and companions, just like your dog or cat! Please sign this Petition today to put a permanent ban on slaughterhouses being allowed to slaughter our horses for food! 

This Petition will ALSO put an end to the senseless capture and slaughter of America's wildhorse~ the Mustang!

I have also started a public group on Facebook, to help this Petition, called Americans Don't Eat Horses! So if you are on Facebook, please join us at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/saynotohorsemeat/
