This resolution expresses the South Dakota House's support for allowing horse slaughter and processing within the state, including on tribal lands, as a method to manage horse populations. It also declares opposition to federal legislation that would ban horse slaughter. The resolution does not change existing state law but rather states the legislature's policy position on this issue.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
