AMERICANS! EASY WAY TO DO GOOD!
SAVE THE HORSES!
If you're not familiar with the practice of "soring" in certain segments of the horse world, well, it's horrific. The short and least-graphic version is, they smear a horse's legs with corrosive chemicals and wrap them to burn for hours or days, so that the horse steps higher in pain for the show ring.
For years, practitioners have avoided legal action and protested legislation against the practice, because... Well, they have.
Now PAST (Prevent All Soring Tactics) ACT is up in the US Senate as S.4004. Please ask your senators to support it, and please share the word for others to contact their senators as well.
For most of us, your senator's last name dot senate dot gov will get you to an easy contact form.
There are no downsides to ending animal cruelty in the name of display and ego.
(I want a horse image for attention, but I'm using a fun gif instead of a topical pic. Please act anyway, so we don't have to flood a feed with awful things to prompt the right thing.)
