Its the work of the National Conference of State Legislatures behind all this "state-by-state" organizing;
Greetings Fellow Equine Lovers, Protectors, Rescuers & Advocates!
Have you heard the latest about the National Conference of State Legislators (NCSL) and their pro-slaughter agenda?
Here are a few petitions to hopefully counter-act some of their workings since they have "officially" come out for horse slaughter and in opposition of our national anti-horse slaughter efforts....as you can see by the petitions below, they are organizing through their state legislative processes on a state-by-state basis to keep the slaughter going and to get horse slaughter plants in their respective states.
We must meet them and oppose them at every turn!
