You cannot celebrate 250 years of America while ignoring those who carried us there.
Save America's Co-Founders from Transnational Crime
The Problem
You secured the border.Transnational criminal organizations have discovered a new avenue to move drugs, traffic humans, and launder money into and across America—the horse auction pipeline.
Nationwide • Coast to Coast • Operating at Night
Drugs. Human trafficking.
Money laundering.
All moving through America's horse auction pipeline—hidden inside trailers, buried in auction lots, operating in plain sight.
The Horse Auction Pipeline.
Drugs
Narcotics moved two ways: hidden inside horse trailers, and concealed surgically inside the horses themselves. Tracheostomies spiking in Texas for no medical reason—and unusual uterine incisions in mares suggest body cavities are being used to transport drugs.
Trafficking
Humans crammed into horse trailers. The same pipeline that moves horses to auction moves people across state lines.
Disease
CDC-confirmed diphtheria in auction horses. Zoonotic pathogens spreading through auction sites with zero federal oversight.
Your Food
Horse meat sold as beef. Laboratory tests confirmed it in 3 states. These horses were pumped with drugs unfit for humans.
Undercover Investigation
An undercover investigation has revealed
what's really happening.
Transnational Crime Using American Horses
An undercover investigation reveals criminal networks are exploiting horse auctions and transport infrastructure for narcotics trafficking, human smuggling, sex trafficking, and money laundering.
Narcotics Trafficking
Horse trailers act as a façade to move controlled substances through auction locations operating mostly at night. Tracheostomies are spiking in Texas horses for no plausible medical reason—and unusual uterine incisions in mares suggest body cavities are being used to conceal and transport drugs.
Human Smuggling & Sex Trafficking
Humans trafficked through horse auctions and the auction pipeline. Equine trailers are difficult to inspect quickly and safely, creating a vulnerability exploited by criminal networks.
Money Laundering
The auction pipeline generates untraceable cash flow—laundering money from illegal activity. A criminal money cycle operating across state lines in plain sight.
Screwworms, Zoonotic Disease & Illicit Meat
The USDA has shut down livestock movement at the Mexican border because of New World screwworm. CDC is tracking confirmed zoonotic disease tied to the horse auction pipeline. And illicit horse meat is entering the food supply.
USDA Confirmed Report
Border Biosecurity Alert: USDA Shuts Down Livestock Movement as New World Screwworm Threatens American Agriculture
New World screwworm is no longer a distant threat. The USDA has shut down livestock movement at the Mexican border to protect American agriculture.
That shutdown proves the risk is real.
The horse auction and transport pipeline moves horses fast, far, and through high-volume routes—creating an opening for parasites and disease to spread through overlooked wounds, limited screening, and constant movement.
Why this matters now: This closure must be made permanent. The horse slaughter pipeline is a wide-open bio-hazard putting borders, ranchers, producers, horses and food supply at risk.
Shut down high-risk horse auctions. Halt transport routes that move horses and trailers with screwworm exposure.
Zoonotic Disease Threat
CDC laboratory-confirmed C. diphtheriae biovar gravis in auction horses 30+ positive results since January 2025, with 200+ antibiotic-resistant strains. Zoonotic pathogens spreading through unregulated operations.
Illegal Horse Meat Sales
Black market butchers exploit the cattle–horse price gap ($1,800 vs. $650) to sell horse meat as beef to restaurants and food trucks. Laboratory tests confirm horse meat in beef samples from suspected establishments in 3 states. These horses receive medications not approved for human consumption.
The Reality
America was born on horseback.
This is how we're repaying them.
The co-founders of this nation—the horses that carried Washington, that built the frontier, that charged into every battle for American freedom—are now being exploited as criminal infrastructure. Horse trailers and the animals themselves act as a façade for drug smuggling, human trafficking, and sex trafficking across auction locations nationwide—most operating at night.
The Solution
You secured the border.
Now close the backdoor.
Criminals found a workaround—using American horses, auction lots, and transport networks to move drugs, traffic humans, and contaminate the food supply nationwide. America's co-founders—the horses that built this nation—are being exploited by transnational crime.
One signature shuts it down. The president who secures the border closes every loophole.
Executive Order
Protecting America's Co-Founders & Closing the
Auction Pipeline Criminal Workaround
Save America's Co-Founders from Exploitation by Transnational Criminal Organizations
Section 1. Permanent suspension of all horse slaughter transport permits to Mexico and Canada.
Section 2. Direct the FBI and DHS to jointly investigate and dismantle transnational criminal networks operating through the horse auction supply chain—including narcotics trafficking, human smuggling, sex trafficking, money laundering, and extortion.
Section 3. USDA enforcement of meat inspection protocols to eliminate illegal horse meat from the American food supply and shut down black market butchering operations.
Section 4. CDC and USDA coordinated response to contain zoonotic disease spread—including diphtheria and New World screwworm—originating from unregulated auction facilities operating nationwide.
Section 5. Permanent halt to back-and-forth crossings of horses and horse trailers along high-risk border routes to prevent screwworm and diphtheria incursion—a biosecurity threat to American agriculture and public health, confirmed by the USDA and CDC.
President Donald J. Trump
The White House — 2026
Take Action
End this now.
Thank the President for securing the border and ask him to close the backdoor—one executive order to shut down the horse auction pipeline for good.
Below are three sample letters to President Trump. Choose the one you like best and copy it, then click the button below. On the White House form, use the pulldown menu and select “Contact the President.”
President Trump, please sign the Executive Order to permanently end the export of American horses for slaughter, strengthen border security, combat transnational crime, and protect one of our nation's most treasured icons.
President Trump, please sign the Buchanan Executive Order to permanently ban horse exports for slaughter and close a pipeline that has repeatedly raised concerns regarding transnational crime, border security, and illicit trafficking. Ending these exports would protect American horses while strengthening national security and law enforcement priorities.
President Trump, as America celebrates 250 years and the Year of the Horse, please sign the Executive Order to permanently close the horse slaughter export pipeline, strengthen border security, eliminate an unnecessary cross-border trade that involves criminal exploitation, safeguard America's biosecurity and public health interests, and protect the iconic American horse that helped settle the frontier, build our nation, and remains a symbol of American freedom and strength.
Tell the President: Sign the executive order. Save America's horses.
