    Soring needs to be banned-- why do those horses have to be abused like that, it is not fair to them. It needs to STOP!

    I am ashamed in the soring within the BIG LICK, it's a disgrace to us all... No more of this time has shown us nothing has changed, only getting worse in the violations all have received ... It will NEVER change until this bill is enacted...

    I am a Walking Horse owner and Exhibitor. I support the PAST act and feel it will strengthen our breed economically at the same time as it will protect the horse from those inside our industry who repeatedly violate the law and are rewarded by those in charge of our breed despite their violations.

    Intentionally injuring horses to make them walk in an abnormal manner for entertainment and ribbons is horribly wrong! Penalties must be increased and enforced. It is time to pass the PAST Act!

    The abuse of our gentle horses has been going on for over 50 years. The PAST Act will cost taxpayers nothing, increase penalties for soring, and ban the stacks and chains used in the show ring. All veterinary associations and most breed associations support the PAST Act.
