Stop Tax-Payer Funding for Painful Testing on Monkeys ([link removed])

Friend, monkeys need your voice TODAY! ([link removed])

Thanks to your action, we successfully ensured that $30 million designated for expanding the monkey experimentation industry was not included in the final federal funding bill for 2024. However, Congress is now considering a separate request from the National Institutes of Health to include an additional $10 million in taxpayer dollars in the federal budget for 2025 to support experiments on monkeys. So, we need you to take action again to stop this second funding request—we succeeded before and can do it again! ([link removed])

Monkeys used in experiments spend their days in barren cages—except when they are being subjected to painful and terrifying procedures. They are force-fed potentially toxic substances, infected with diseases and can be immobilized in restraint chairs for hours on end. Please join us in urging Congress to stop this proposed expansion of monkey experiments. ([link removed])

This proposal is appalling considering that there are non-animal alternatives that are proving superior to animal tests and where Congress should instead be investing. These experiments on monkeys have very limited value and cause extreme suffering to more than 100,000 monkeys in U.S. laboratories every year. Because this proposal is part of the upcoming spending bill in Congress, we don’t have a moment to lose.

We stopped this before, so I know we can do it again if we all come together to speak up for these poor monkeys. We cannot allow this archaic practice to be expanded further than it already has—please tell your legislators to oppose this terrible proposal TODAY! ([link removed])

Thank you for your voice and your action.

Sincerely,

Sara Amundson Signature
