6 U.S.C. § 453c — Disposition of equines unfit for service

submitted 15 years ago by Pub. L. 112-74 to r/title-6-DOMESTIC-SECURITY · 79 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

DHS cannot use money to destroy or abandon a horse or other equine unfit for service. This applies starting in fiscal year 2012. First, the trainer or handler must get the chance to adopt the animal through a safe program.

Starting in fiscal year 2012, and every year after, no funds from this or any other law may be used to destroy, or turn loose, a horse or other equine belonging to any part of the Department of Homeland Security, once that animal becomes unfit for service. Before that happens, the animal's trainer or handler must first be given the chance to adopt it, through an adoption program that has safeguards against slaughter and inhumane treatment.

None of the funds made available in this or any other Act for fiscal year 2012 and thereafter may be used to destroy or put out to pasture any horse or other equine belonging to any component or agency of the Department of Homeland Security that has become unfit for service, unless the trainer or handler is first given the option to take possession of the equine through an adoption program that has safeguards against slaughter and inhumane treatment.
