The entire process of how this happened starts with the Government Accounting Office which seems to have been heavily influenced by the slaughter lobby...

Huffington Post: The Equine Welfare Alliance, a group focused on horses' welfare, released a position paper in response to the GAO report, slamming "disturbing omissions" that favored slaughter lobbyists.

"The GAO has a reputation for objective and thorough research and fair reporting," the group writes. "Every indication is that this standard was abandoned in the compilation of this report, and that the result is little short of a propaganda tool for horse slaughter interests."
