Pass the "Great Ape Protection and Cost Savings Act" now.

The Issue

Show your support by signing this petition that I will forward on to my Congressmen and Senators to show how widespread the support for this bill is.

The vast majority of federally owned chimpanzees in laboratories are not being used in active research protocols, but rather have been warehoused for decades, wasting millions of taxpayer dollars year after year, Passing this bill would not only save federal dollars by sending chimpanzees to be cared for in sanctuaries, which are more cost effective than labs, but would also spare these highly intelligent and social creatures from isolation and harm.
