White Coat Waste to Testify on U.S. Senate Hearing: Highlighting Government Transparency and Animal Cruelty in Taxpayer-Funded Labs
White Coat Waste is set to testify at a U.S. Senate hearing on March eighteenth, focusing on government transparency and secret spending. The group plans to highlight how openness can cut waste, fraud, and abuse, including cruelty to dogs and cats in taxpayer-funded labs. Recent Freedom of Information Act requests reveal the National Institutes of Health has awarded over one hundred twenty-six million dollars in new grants for dog and cat experiments worldwide. Despite Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Juniors pledges to reduce animal testing, public outrage has led to a flood of angry calls to his office. New records show specific grants in recent weeks, including cutting cats spinal cords, infecting beagle puppies with hookworms, breeding dogs with fatal bleeding disorders, and inducing heart failure in dogs. The Senate hearing could push for real change.
