Taxpayer, I just wated to reach out and say thank you. I
thought you might be interested in what we were able to accomplish in May
because you stepped up when we asked for your help. We never want to see you go.

There. I said it. Now we’re DOING something about it:



Add Your Name »
[[link removed]]The DOJ wastes your money ($120,000 in taxes!) to stab, shoot, burn, and
dismember live victims… and they don’t want you to know about it.

Well, thanks to you, our new lawsuit is going to finally hold them accountable! (Taxpayer, I’ve pasted some of your awesome media
coverage below, too).

Taxpayer, you give generously to WCW because we're the
ONLY group that fights against taxpayer-funded animal testing... and wins .

And I’m REALLY grateful because you just helped us hit May’s fundraising goal.
THANK YOU!

Your donation isn’t just helping us take the fight to the DOJ. It’s also helping
us pass Delilah’s Law to end the government’s shopping spree in Chinese wet
markets.

And Taxpayer, your donation is ALSO helping us save the
“Richmond 66”…

You see, WCW attempted to run ads exposing painful heart attack and treadmill
experiments on 66 beagle puppies trapped at a U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs dog
lab in Richmond, Virginia.

Our advertising was censored. So we sued on your behalf… and won! Big time:

Thanks to your amazing partnership, we’ve already closed 75% of the VA’s dog
labs, driving federal government dog testing to its lowest-ever level. Onward to 100%!

So Taxpayer, we’ve been asking for your support. A lot of
it. I know …

But there’s a good reason why: it’s working.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE SUED FOR WITHHOLDING INFORMATION ABOUT STABBING, SHOOTING,
AND BURNING ANIMALS FOR MEDICAL TRAINING

Watchdog group White Coat Waste Project is taking legal action after the
government agency failed to provide documents related to its live tissue
training.

by NICOLE AXWORTHY

Taxpayer watchdog group White Coat Waste Project (WCWP) recently filed a Freedom
of Information Act lawsuit against the United States Department of Justice (DOJ)
for withholding documents related to its stabbing, shooting, and burning of live
pigs, goats, and dogs in medical training drills.

Last year, a WCWP investigation revealed that the Federal Bureau of
Investigation and US Marshals Service, which are both housed under the DOJ,
spent $120,000 on contracts for live tissue training—even though more efficient
and cost-effective human simulators are available to teach emergency medical
skills.

House Judiciary Committee member Representative Ted Lieu (D-CA) and Vice Chair
of the DOJ’s funding panel Representative Matt Cartwright (D-PA) joined the
effort and sent a strongly-worded letter to the DOJ expressing their concern.
“The use of animals for this training is expensive, obsolete, unnecessary, and
opposed by most Americans,” the letter said.

In October 2019, WCWP filed a Freedom of Information Act request for public
records relating to the agency’s live tissue training—including paid invoices,
training guides, and non-disclosure agreements the agency is legally obligated
to disclose to taxpayers. The lawsuit was filed after the DOJ failed to meet its
legal obligation and provide the documents.

“The Department of Justice’s wasteful and outdated live tissue training
exercises are straight out of a horror movie. It’s no wonder the DOJ is trying
to hide the details of how it’s stabbing, shooting, and burning live animals at
taxpayers’ expense,” Arin Greenwood, Communications Director for WCWP, told
VegNews. “We filed this lawsuit because taxpayers have a right to know how our
money is being spent so we can hold the DOJ accountable for forcing Americans to
pay for this sick taxpayer-funded animal torture.”

To stop taxpayer-funded animal tests, we must first stop the $20 billion+ in
wasteful government spending.

We find, expose, and de-fund wasteful government spending on animal experiments.
To change public policy, we unite liberty lovers and animal lovers with
hard-hitting investigations and public policy campaigns.
