Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) and Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) are working on the White Coat Waste Project, a government watchdog agency responsible for many of the cruel experiments on dogs and cats. has introduced legislation to reduce taxpayer funding for these experiments. (WCW).
The legislators introduced Mace detailed how alarming it was to “learn the scale and scope of the barbaric and unnecessary experiments on dogs and cats funded by the National Institutes of Health.”
“Americans across the political spectrum are appalled to learn that their tax dollars are used to subsidize the abuse of thousands of puppies and kittens in laboratories each year,” Mace said in a statement. He went on to assert that the PAAW law “guarantees a tough life for taxpayers.” The money you earn will not be wasted on outdated and cruel experiments on pets. ”
Moskowitz, who identified himself as the dog’s owner, said he was “appalled by the inhumane acts that are being carried out using taxpayer dollars.” “I am glad that we were able to choose rights over politics and stop an unnecessary government.” This is an experiment on dogs and cats. ”
More specifically, the bill would “restrict the Director of the National Institutes of Health from conducting or funding research that causes significant pain or suffering to dogs or cats, and for other purposes.” “Amend the Public Health Service Act to prohibit
invoice state The National Institutes of Health (NIH) spends taxpayer dollars on experiments that inflict pain on both dogs and cats, but the federal agency itself says that “animal models do not mimic diseases or show how drugs work in humans.” “We often cannot provide a good way to predict the As a result, much time and money is wasted while patients wait for treatment,” the bill’s text reads.
The bill also states that other agencies, including the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Food and Drug Administration, have “initiated efforts to reduce and replace testing, particularly for dogs and cats.”
As a result, the bill states, “The NIH Director shall not conduct or support research that causes significant pain or suffering to dogs or cats.” According to the bill, this “includes research classified by the Department of Agriculture as pain category D or E.”
This was supported by the White Coast Waste Project, which blew the lid off some cruel and unusual animal experiments funded by taxpayers. For example, in 2022, a Freedom of Information Act investigation by WCW revealed that the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) spent millions of taxpayer dollars in cruel experiments injecting beagle puppies with cocaine. As it surfaced, the NIH faced a Congressional investigation. [FOIA] request. Researchers found that “seven six-month-old beagles were trained to wear jackets,” but the jackets were used “for the cruel purpose of injecting drugs into the jacketed animals.” “I achieved this goal.”
WCW has shared some footage of these various experiments, much of which difficult to see.
“From Dr. Fauci’s fly-parasitic experiments on beagles to the Kremlin’s crippling experiments on kittens, our investigation reveals how the NIH has wasted millions of taxpayer dollars in the U.S. and abroad in painful ways. “We continue to uncover how pets are abused in dead-end experiments,” said Senior Deputy Justin Goodman. The WCW President said in a statement:
“A supermajority of taxpayers oppose wasteful NIH spending on experiments on dogs and cats, and they should not be forced to pay. “I commend Congressman Witts and his colleagues for their outstanding leadership in reducing NIH cruelty to taxpayer-funded dogs and kittens,” he continued.
“When it comes to painful and unnecessary dog and cat testing, wasteful spending at the NIH is the problem and the PAAW Act is the solution. Stop the money. Stop the madness!” he added.
According to W.C.W.“In addition to Co-Leaders Mr. Mace and Mr. Moskowitz, the PAAW Act is supported by Representatives Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY), Troy Neals (R-TX), and Marcy Kaptur (D-OH). ), Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-Washington, DC), Buddy Carter (R-GA), Greg Steube (R-Florida), and Dina Titus (D-NV).”
