Stop the opening of slaughterhouses that want to specifically slaughter horses for human consumption.

To stop the opening of slaughter houses that want to specifically slaughter horses for human consumption. This petition also covers shipping these majestic animals to Mexico and Canada for slaughter. Horses helped to build this country. They carried settlers west to settle. They helped work the land so crops could be planted. They carried great Generals into battles in both the Revolution and Civil War. They should be more revered by the American people than what they are now. They are part of our country's history.
