Candidates Co-sponsoring anti-slaughter bill

Dear Readers,
Here's the list of all the cosponsors of the HORSE PROTECTION ACT
Some major presidential candidates are co-sponsoring it. Of course not all candidates can be co-sponsors, because they're not, or are no longer senators -- John Edwards for instance. However, I hope that the circulation of this list will encourage other candidates to state their feelings. SOON!
