BREAKING: Pressure from White Coat Waste and Gateway Pundit’s Reporting Forces NIH to Begin Phasing Out Dog and Cat Labs
The National Institutes of Health has announced that it will begin phasing out barbaric dog and cat testing, following months of pressure from the Gateway Pundit’s reporting on the relentless investigations of the taxpayer watchdog White Coat Waste Project (WCW).
Just two days prior, eleven members of Congress signed a letter urging NIH to end its funding for the cruel dog and cat experiments approved under Dr. Anthony Fauci. The letter, penned by Rep. Paul Gosar, cited WCW and Gateway Pundit directly.
The changes were announced in a sit-down conversation posted to YouTube between NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and Dr. Nicole Kleinstreuer, Acting Deputy Director for Program Coordination, Planning, and Strategic Initiatives at the NIH.
The duo explained that they are currently required by law to maintain grants that have already been awarded, but can begin phasing them out.
“We are constrained under the law to leave those existing grants in place,” Kleinstreuer said.
“For now,” Bhattacharya interjected.
“But to phase them out, we are working tirelessly behind the scenes,” Kleinstreuer said, explaining that they are creating an action plan to end them as fast as they are legally allowed.
WATCH:
Kleinstreuer had recently told NPR, “We have no intention of just phasing out animal studies overnight. We know that animal studies are still very important and often scientifically justified.” Despite Kleinstreuer’s defense of cruel and wasteful animal testing, PETA, which claims to be a leading animal rights organization, has repeatedly praised and covered for her.
Though Kleinstreuer stated during the video, in no uncertain terms, that she is against testing on dogs and cats, she did not mention monkeys or any of the other animals being tortured under her watch.
