Taxpayer– thanks to you and WCW’s grassroots army, we
covered our budget to stop the FDA and save its 91 baboons. Thank you!
Federal transparency is worse than ever. Government bureaucracy is slower than
ever. But our investigators are pushing harder than ever to get an update on the
FDA’s primate labs. Expect a big update from us soon.
In the meantime, I have GOOD NEWS…
BREAKING: following a White Coat Waste investigation and lobbying campaign, the
U.S. House of Representatives just de-funded ALL Pentagon spending on dog and
cat experiments!
Our victory marks the first time in history Congress voted to prohibit spending
on dog and cat labs at the Dept. of Defense. It’s a BFD.
There’s more work to be done. See below for what’s next.
Taxpayer, please follow this secure link to demand your
Senator pass the bill next.

P.S. No other animal protection group was involved in this win. It’s just you
and WCW. Will you take the next step?

Last month, a White Coat Waste Project (WCW) investigation uncovered
[[link removed]] how the Department of Defense is wasting nearly $1 million of taxpayers’ money
to torture beagles in completely unnecessary and cruel drug safety tests.

Just a few weeks after the story broke, Congress is taking action to stop the
Pentagon’s wasteful spending on pet abuse in tax-funded testing labs.
[[link removed]]
The House just unanimously passed a bipartisan amendment
[[link removed]] to the National Defense Authorization Act—the annual must-pass bill that sets
DOD policy—that cuts funding for all of the DOD’s experimentation on dogs and
cats. The amendment was championed by U.S. Representatives Jared Moskowitz (D-FL),
Nancy Mace (R-SC), and Don Davis (D-NC) and it’s the first time ever that
Congress has voted to defund all of the Pentagon’s pet abuse. The NDAA now heads
to the U.S. Senate.

WCW recently exposed
[[link removed]] how the U.S. Army has commissioned a $949,108 experiment on beagles in which
the animals will be forced to ingest massive doses of an experimental drug for
the alleged purpose of winning FDA approval, even though the FDA says it doesn’t
mandate dog testing. The DOD project started last year and is slated to run
until July 31, 2024.

WCW has also obtained documents detailing how the DOD’s Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency has wasted nearly $11 million since 2020 for ongoing
experiments in which cats are subjected to invasive and debilitating surgeries
and hooked up to electrodes for erectile dysfunction and constipation studies.
The defense bill also contains companion language inserted by Rep. Mace urging
the agency to stop testing on dogs and adopt alternatives. The measure
references WCW’s successful campaigns to eliminate dog and cat testing at the Department of Veterans Affairs
[[link removed]] , cancel Dr. Fauci’s runny nose drug tests on dogs
[[link removed]] , and cut FDA’s animal testing red tape.
[[link removed]]
Following WCW’s recent investigation, the DOD’s dog testing quickly attracted
[[link removed]] criticism from Republicans and Democrats in Congress who vowed to fight it.

We’re grateful to Reps. Mace, Moskowitz, and Davis for their outstanding
leadership!
