In this The Gateway Pundit article, Cassandra MacDonald reports that White Coat Waste and House Republicans are pushing several FY2027 appropriations measures aimed at cutting taxpayer funding for animal testing involving dogs, cats, and gender-transition-related experiments on animals.
- The article says House Republicans advanced spending-bill provisions that would block federal dollars from being used for certain painful experiments on pets.
- The House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies advanced NIH funding language targeting dog and cat testing.
- The NIH language also reportedly bars funding for research on vertebrate animals involving drugs, surgery, or interventions meant to alter biological sex characteristics.
- Rep. Paul Gosar is credited with leading the effort against taxpayer-funded animal gender-transition experiments, with support from Rep. Michael Cloud and other Republicans.
- The article says the EPA appropriations bill also includes language cutting funding for dog testing, with Cloud leading that effort.
- Two White Coat Waste-backed amendments to the FDA-Agriculture appropriations bill, led by Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, passed the House by voice vote.
- One amendment would defund painful USDA experiments on dogs and cats, while the other would stop the FDA from issuing guidance that mandates dog testing for human drugs and devices.
- Supporters cited in the article include Reps. Nancy Mace, Paul Gosar, Ted Lieu, Nick Langworthy, Michael Cloud, and Nicole Malliotakis.
- White Coat Waste founder Anthony Bellotti framed the provisions as part of a broader campaign to cut federal spending on animal testing, saying the solution is to “stop the money.”
- The article notes that the measures still must move through the full House and Senate before becoming law.
