Taxpayer, bad news:   

This is the Washington Times’ cover story. Our new investigation just made front page headlines. 

As you can see, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is doubling down on animal testing. It’s about to launch the most massive resurgence of animal experimentation in the history of the United States federal government. 

Unfortunately, nobody cares.  

Taxpayer, this trend is also ominous news. Support for our campaign to block the EPA is at an all-time low. 

You see, the first few days following the launch of a new effort are the most critical. 

If we can’t show an initial surge of grassroots support, the pro-animal testing lobby will gauge it as a sign of weakness. Congress and the White House will also assume the issue is not a priority.  

And, as you can see in this chart, there’s also direct connection between rapid fundraising success and rapid lab closures. RAPID response is everything! 

We still have time to turn this around, but not much. Here’s a secure link to chip in. 

Taxpayer, we wrongly assumed that our grassroots army would be fired up when they learned about EPA’s animal testing scandal. We had counted on a big outpouring of donations to pay for:

• Lobbying
• Litigation
• Advertising
• Even more front-page investigations

These are the same strategies and tactics that proved so successful in shutting down the FDA’s monkey tests, and the VA’s dog tests, so quickly. But that didn’t happen this time.

Now, here’s the urgent deadline: we have only 24 hours left! 

So Taxpayer, if you can afford it, follow this secure link to rush an emergency gift of as much as you can spare. Even $3 will make a difference.
