U.S. Residents: Support the Great Ape Protection Act

U.S. Residents: Support the Great Ape Protection Act

The Issue

As all compassionate individuals know, animals in laboratories - particularly primates - suffer immensely. The Great Ape Protection Act would end invasive biomedical research and testing on an estimated 1000 chimpanzees remaining in U.S. laboratories. The bill would also retire approximately 600 federally "owned" chimpanzees currently in laboratories – many for more than 40 years – to permanent sanctuary.
