Good news in the battle against horse slaughter: Today, the Senate Appropriations Committee included language in the Fiscal Year 2020 Ag Appropriations bill defunding horse slaughter inspections for another year. 1/3 #nohorseslaughter #horses #yes2safe

This stop-gap measure has helped us keep slaughter plants inside the United States closed since 2007 as we work to pass the SAFE Act (H.R. 961 / S. 2006) to both permanently ban horse slaughter and the transport of horses, domestic and wild, over our borders for slaughter. 2/3

Thank you to @SenatorTomUdall, @LindseyGrahamSC and @SenatorCollins for championing the defund language, as well as to the committee's chair, @SenShelby, and ranking member, @SenatorLeahy, for including anti-slaughter language in a bipartisan package of approved amendments. 3/3
