On Thursday October 2nd, The University of Washington Board of Regents voted to approve plans for a new underground, $123.5 million animal-research facility. This would allow the university to increase the number of primates, cats, dogs, rabbits, pigs and mice dramatically. While the number of animal testing facilities has dropped nationwide, UW is planning to expand. Please join me in calling on the Board of Regents to reverse this decision and phase out all animal testing.
