"Last year, overwhelming Congressional and public support led to the approval of the Horse Slaughter Amendment as part of the 2006 Agriculture Appropriations Bill. The amendment barred expenditure of federal funds to inspect horses going to slaughter from March 10 through September 30, 2006. Without the inspections, the slaughter plants cannot slaughter horses for human consumption.
Under the petition, the slaughterhouses will now pay USDA to execute the inspections, thus circumventing the law and the will of the American public. As a result, tens of thousands of horses will die."
