Taxpayer, I’m horrified. 

For the last 19 years, our government has been purchasing heartworms from TRS Labs in Georgia.  

700 beagles are imprisoned here. Puppies are turned into living, breathing Petri dishes—incubators for parasites. All will be slaughtered. 

IN JUST A FEW DAYS, the National Institutes of Health will likely grant more money to the lab keeping this heartworm factory in business.  

HARD GOVERNMENT DEADLINE: Take immediate action to help us block payout #5R01AI047194. Please save 700 puppies!

Taxpayer, here’s everything you need to know: 

• Intentionally Infected: First, she's injected with heartworm larvae. For 6 months, worms feast on her heart and lungs. 
   
• Devastating Symptoms: She’ll develop a persistent cough. Her belly swells up. She’ll be skinny and exhausted 24/7 as the heartworms steal her nutrients. 
   
• Slaughtered: Once the worms mature, she’ll be slaughtered. They'll harvest her heart and sell the adult worms. Another cycle of abuse is about to begin! Wash, rinse, repeat. 
   
• Your Tax Bill? $6.1 MILLION!

And the most heartbreaking and infuriating part, Taxpayer? 

Heartworm is completely curable. These beagles could be treated and retired as pets.  

But lazy TRS white coats can’t be bothered. It’s more convenient to kill them and throw them away—like trash.

P.S. Taxpayer, we are the very best at what we do. In fact, WCW is the ONLY group to shut down government dog labs in nearly 20 years! 

With your help, we can win this campaign, too—and give 700 dogs a second chance at life.

Thanks for your consideration.
