Friend,

There’s absolutely no reason any animal should suffer in a research lab.

Yet every day, dogs, monkeys, rabbits and other animals are subjected to painful toxicity testing because of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s flawed and outdated drug approval policies. And we need your help to turn the tide. Send a message calling on the FDA to end animal testing now!

Animals used for research spend their lives in barren laboratories, facing cruel and inhumane procedures. They’re forced to ingest—or are injected with—potentially poisonous substances. They have chemicals smeared into their eyes and skin. And when the tests end? The animals are killed.

Alternative non-animal test methods are more effective than tests on animals, and yet the FDA still strongly encourages the use of animal tests for drug toxicity. That’s why we’re continuing to work with our animal champions in Congress to secure federal funding for FDA to continue developing and implementing non-animal testing methods. It’s time to stand together, stronger than ever, and demand an end to animal testing.

Your voice is crucial—please tell the FDA to stop relying on cruel, outdated animal testing and instead commit to more accurate non-animal test methods and strategies.

Thank you for your urgent action!

Sincerely,

Sara Amundson
President
Humane Society Legislative Fund
