U.S. Residents: Ask Congress to Phase Out Cruel Military Training

U.S. Residents: Ask Congress to Phase Out Cruel Military Training

The Issue

The military’s use of animals in medical training programs is not only cruel and ineffective - a cost savings estimate (PDF) recently completed by PCRM reveals that it is also wasting millions of taxpayer dollars.

H.R. 4269, the BEST Practices Act, seeks to remedy these issues by phasing in human-based training. Please sign below to register your support for BEST. For additional information, please visit:
