The Ride for Freedom-Spirit of the Horse – Declaring the Horse a “National Treasure!”
On Monday, September 13th, 2004 Jennifer Hughes and the Pony Express along with twelve to fourteen Mounted Police, rode to the White House to meet President Bush to declare the HORSE a “National Treasure”.
America reenacted the role the horse has played in our country on Pennsylvania Avenue as a reminder of what we as Americans owe the HORSE for building our country!
Americans of all ages say this election year “No more heinous horse slaughter of our American horses for European tables!”
Once the HORSE is declared a National Treasure, horse slaughter in America will immediately cease!
We would like to thank the ACLU, Washington DC mounted police unit, the park police unit and the individual supporters who joined us on September 13th, 2004.
We are working to end horse slaughter by declaring the horse a National Treasure and will look for more support from individuals and groups interested in helping Jennifer Hughes and Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary™, Inc. in making this happen.
I truly believe that “In numbers change can happen!”
