Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.The U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce has approved a proposed bill that would ban the doping of horses on race day -- a key concern over the safety and wellbeing of racehorses.
Authentic #18, ridden by jockey John Velazquez and the field break from the starting gate during the 146th running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky., Sept. 05, 2020. "A big part of the problem has been the lack of clear standards for medications trainers use to mask pain or enhance the performance of horses," Humane Society President and CEO Kitty Block said in a statement Wednesday."Racing occurs in 38 states, and unscrupulous owners and trainers can currently move racehorses from one jurisdiction to another with fewer restrictions to continue doping horses and avoid penalties.
Government always sticking their fingers where they don't belong.
TheWrapRadio finally getting some much needed regulations!
“Behind the romanticized façade of Thoroughbred horse racing is a world of injuries, drug abuse, gruesome breakdowns, and slaughter. While spectators show off their fancy outfits and sip mint juleps, horses are running for their lives.” ~PETA

House committee to hear proposed bill that would ban doping of horses on race dayThe U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce will hear a proposed bill that would ban the doping of horses on race day -- a key concern over the safety of race horses. And just think, horses are listed as athletes like people but the slight difference is when horses get hurt, people shoot them. The cost of saving an injured horse is equivalent to human hospital bills. Horses are an investment, a commodity, just like NCAA athletes. HumaneSociety Thank you for fainly standing up for the horses. About damn time! Sorry this just a sore spot with me. I hope this comes to pass. For the horses sake.
