A call to action! We urgently need you to call your NYS assembly member and ask them to support: Assembly Bill A. 4154B to END the slaughter of race horses in New York State.

 Please stop the slaughter of our horses in NYS!



We urgently need you to make one phone call today to your New York State Assemblymember to help pass Assembly Bill A.4154B to END the horrific slaughter of horses forced to run on racetracks and bred for the purposes of racing. Bill A.4154B, sponsored by Assembly Member Gary Pretlow, would require that horses used for racing be microchipped and would allocate funding through tax returns for the lifelong care of retired Thoroughbred horses. The bill needs to pass THIS WEEK in the Assembly, so each call makes a big difference! This bill has already PASSED in the NY State Senate. Make one phone call today to pass it in the Assembly so it can be enacted into law!

 

Thousands of Thoroughbred horses are sent to slaughter by the horse racing industry every year. NY Assembly Bill A.4154B would STOP this slaughter - and would prohibit the import, export, sale, or transport of the horses with the intent of slaughtering them or having a third-party slaughter them.  After all the exploitation and suffering these horses already endure on tracks, the least we can do is ensure that they have a humane retirement and don't end up at a slaughterhouse.

TAKE ACTION WITH ONE CALL TODAY
