Urge Congress to End the Abusive Practice of Soring Horses

“Soring”—which involves intentionally inflicting pain on a horse’s hooves and front limbs to produce an exaggerated high-stepping gait known as the “Big Lick”—remains a persistent and rampant practice in Tennessee walking horse competitions. To end this abuse, Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Steve Cohen (D-TN), Vern Buchanan (R-FL), and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) have reintroduced the Prevent All Soring Tactics (PAST) Act in the House. Email, call, write, and tweet your US representative today and urge them to cosponsor the PAST Act (H.R.1684).
