Horse racing a cruel sport
I thank the Daily Star for its coverage of the horse deaths at Rillito Racetrack last weekend. For so long, the many horses who have died on Arizona’s racetracks were never mentioned or garnered any attention. Their deaths being actively hidden from public scrutiny as much as possible, their lives considered expendable and just the price of doing business as usual.
I am hopeful, however, at the way so many people around the world are reacting with their own outrage. Perhaps this time enough people worldwide are really comprehending the senseless horror and brutality of war in a way that will alter this for the future. Perhaps enough people will also understand the effects of unchecked power and ego in one man, and its potential for destruction.
Fortunately, Sen. Mark Kelly is a lawmaker who comes up with good solutions. One of his first votes in the Senate was to pass the No Surprises Act, a law that provides extra protections for Arizonans facing surprise medical bills. The law effectively eliminates unexpected medical costs and protects Arizona families from crippling debt.
