The animal testing industry goes to great lengths to keep everything that they're doing hidden. Please tell your senators to support S. 778, the Cost Openness and Spending Transparency (COST) Act. This bill would require public disclosure of the total cost to taxpayers for every project supported with federal funds.

Ask your representatives to support H.R. 1024: The Humane and Existing Alternatives in Research and Testing Sciences Act of 2022 (“HEARTS Act of 2022”). This bill would amend the Public Health Service Act to ensure that nonanimal methods are prioritized where applicable and feasible.

Send a message to the University of Washington Board of Regents demanding they stop conducting invasive research on animals, and instead opt for modern-day, evidence-based research methods that benefit humans without harming living, feeling beings.

The animal experimentation industry has pushed these two species of monkeys to the brink of extinction. We need your help to get the long-tailed macaque and the pig-tailed macaque added to the list of endangered species with protections under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).

Sensitive, intelligent cephalopods (octopi, squid, and cuttlefish) can feel pain. They can—and do—suffer in experiments. These facts make it clear: the U.S. government must urgently adopt safeguards for these sentient creatures.

Arizona State University is cruelly putting monkeys in restraints, drilling screws into their skulls, implanting electrodes in their brains, and keeping them restrained for hours every day in experiments that last for years. Please take a moment to demand that ASU end these torturous experiments.

Request that the USDA perform a surprise inspection of Covance Laboratories, Inc. to check on how the staff treats the animals there.

In a single day, 27 NASA primates were killed rather than being given the chance to live the rest of their lives in a sanctuary. Demand accountability for this indiscriminate killing. Ask NASA's Inspector General to investigate this waste and misconduct.

Wild Mauritian monkeys are stolen from their homes and ripped from their families to be used in cruel experimentation. Urge the U.S. Ambassador to Mauritius, David Reimer, to fight for the end of this cruel and unnecessary trade in wild-caught monkeys.
