Thank you very much.
Just to clarify once again, of all the veterinarians who signed that brief, only two were not small animal veterinarians. The rest of them were small animal veterinarians. It sounds like your objections to this bill, Ms. Mitchell, are not grounded in science but rather in a love of horses.
Why ban the whole practice entirely? Why wouldn't you just advocate for increasing the standards? Have you ever been on any of those flights? Have you witnessed the landing and the treatment of the horses while they're en route?
