Win Alert for YOU!
Thank YOU—and everyone in our grassroots army—who donated, advocated, and spread the word to help us stop NIH’s assault on cats. We’ll keep you updated on our progress.
Now, I’d like to share this:
“Inhumane primate test by the VA was scrapped even before it commenced, thanks to the advocacy and lobbying efforts of WCW.”
— World Animal News
WE WON! WCW has SHUT DOWN a Veterans Affairs lab that planned to:
- Fatten-up primates
- Induce an eye disorder
- Kill and dissect the monkeys
Your tax bill was $124K. Now, it’s ZERO!
This confirms our strategy: the most effective way to stop an animal experiment is to stop it before the funding begins—exactly how we’re fighting to save the cats.
Thank you. See below. Your support just spared four more lives.
You Give. We Win. They Survive.

P.S. I once worked in an animal lab. And I made a vow to end it. That’s why I founded WCW: the most effective organization for ending animal experiments. Thank you for investing in the winning team. Thx—AB
P.P.S. Know what WCW really stands for? White Coat WINS. For the better part of the last decade (!), the big establishment animal groups have shut down a grand total of zero government primate labs. Here’s how YOU and I are ending the culture of losing.
STOP GOVT PRIMATE TESTING >>
WCW stopped this primate lab at the VA. To clean out all primates labs in the U.S. govt, contact Congress today!

VICTORY: Following WCW efforts, VA quietly cancels deadly primate experiments
- A new WCW investigation has confirmed that the Department of Veterans Affairs canceled plans to waste $124K to fatten up monkeys in order to induce an eye disorder and then kill and dissect them.
- The Charleston VA quietly canceled the wasteful project after WCW got Congress to enact legislation restricting VA spending on primate testing.
- Congress just enacted historic WCW-backed bipartisan legislation directing the VA to eliminate all primate testing by 2026.
- No other animal protection organization has shut down a government primate laboratory in nearly a decade.
Following White Coat Waste Project’s (WCW) years of investigations, advocacy, and lobbying, Congress just enacted historic bipartisan legislation directing the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to eliminate all primate (and dog and cat) testing by 2026.
