Springsteen’s Daughter Wants Chris Christie to Stop People From Eating Horses


Devout Bruce Springsteen worshiper and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has a decision to make. Christie will have to either sign or veto a bill that would prevent the transport of horses for the purpose of human consumption. While there aren’t many Americans making dinner out of Mr. Ed, people in Europe are eating horses. There aren’t any horse slaughterhouses in America, but New Jersey is apparently a “major artery” that helps transport horses to Canada so they can be killed and shipped to Europe. Jessica Springsteen has appealed to Governor Christie asking that he sign the bill, which passed the state Senate and Assembly by huge margins earlier this year. [Asbury Park Press]
