Calls needed to support the Moran Amendment to stop USDA funding for the slaughter of horses on US soil by contacting your State’s member of the US Full House Committee on Appropriations. Call the Capitol switchboard and ask to be connected to your state's representative. 202.224.2131.
Rep. James Moran (D-8-VA) will submit an Amendment within the next few DAYS to the Full House Committee on Appropriations prohibiting funding of USDA horse slaughter inspections necessary to export horse meat. If this amendment becomes law, no facility for the slaughter of equines for human consumption can operate in the U.S.
Last fall, 2011, the Congress and the President ended the de-funding, making it legal to slaughter horses for human consumption in the U.S. once again. Until then horse slaughter for human consumption had been illegal in the U.S. since 2007.
