White Coat Waste Project’s new “Seeing Red” investigation exposed how the National Institutes of Health is still shipping millions of tax dollars to Chinese animal labs that are using your money to torture dogs and other animals.
WCW’s revelations made headlines and front page news:
Members of Congress who have been working with WCW to defund NIH’s dog and cat testing at home and abroad and all animal labs in China quickly condemned the wasteful and abusive taxpayer-funded dog tests exposed by WCW.
Based on our new findings, Congress quickly sprang into action and introduced the bipartisan Chinese Laboratory Accountability and Watchful Spending (CLAWS) Act to require all federal agencies to report to Congress annually on their funding for animal labs in China.
