“Soring” is when trainers deliberately inflict pain—using caustic chemicals, sharp objects, chains and other cruel tactics—to exaggerate the high-stepping gait of their horses and gain unfair competitive advantage at horse shows.

The PAST Act has the bipartisan support of more than 360 House and Senate co-sponsors.
