  • Taxpayer Protection Act

    The aim of the Taxpayer Protection Act of 2007 was, according to govtrack.us, "to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to enhance taxpayer protections and outreach". The bill was sponsored by Charles Rengel, the U.S. Representative of New York's 15th District and a Democrat. Although the Act was approved by the House of Representatives in April, 2007, it never became law.

  • Protection for a Horse's Knees

    Since horses use their knee joints when they are running, it is vital to protect them. Depending on what is happening with your horse, you will need to enact different protective measures. As such, you should only use quality bandages, boots and wraps, because otherwise, more bad than good will be done to the horse.

  • Ancient Monuments Protection Act

    The Ancient Monuments Protection Act was an act of the British Parliament, initially passed in 1882 after a few failed attempts. The Act was renewed and revised in 1900 and 1910. It was the precursor to the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act of 1979, which extended protections from single monuments to include broader areas.

  • About the Horse Protection Act

    Soring, a practice that accentuates a horse's gait, irritates the forelegs by injecting or applying chemicals or mechanical methods. Although soring is painful for horses, it gives horses a competitive edge in shows and exhibitions by causing them to quickly lift their front legs to relieve the pain. The practice was made illegal by the United States Horse Protection Act of 1970.
