    It's imperative we protect these highly intelligent, emotional horses from the cruel acts of humanity. A horse should not be subjected to such treatment for the sole purpose of entertainment. Animals are innocent and helpless and we have to stand up for them, and protect them from harm and cruelty. I strongly urge you to pass this federal regulation to end such violence.

    The rule has been written to end the incredibly cruel practice of horse soring. It has bipartisan support in both houses of Congress. Please pass this bill into law so that no other horses suffer this cruelty. It has been a long time coming. Please pass this law immediatly.
