Congresswoman Nancy Mace reintroduces the PAAW Act, aiming to end NIH animal testing causing severe distress to pets.
Quiver AI Summary
Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) has reintroduced the Preventing Animal Abuse and Waste (PAAW) Act, aiming to prohibit the National Institutes of Health (NIH) from funding research that inflicts significant pain or distress on dogs and cats. Mace stated, “This isn’t just animal cruelty, it’s bureaucratic cruelty, paid for by the American taxpayer.”
The bill intends to amend the Public Health Service Act, banning certain extreme animal testing classified as USDA pain levels D or E, including practices such as injecting drugs and inflicting distress without relief. Mace emphasized the need for the NIH to be held accountable and to end taxpayer-funded abuse of pets.
Supported by various advocates, the PAAW Act aligns with efforts to modernize research practices and recognizes the inhumane conditions animals face in federal labs. Justin Goodman from the White Coat Waste Project remarked on the importance of defunding painful experiments, calling for an end to wasteful spending on inhumane research.
