    Smaller animals excluded in welfare act

    http://www.latimes.com/news/nationwo...cs%2Dheadlines

    All I can say is GGGGGGRRRRRRRR

    I hate animal testing. I wonder if this law is the same in Sweden, will have to look into that...

    Ok, I've been looking into this, wanting to know what I could possible do to help, and this is what I came up with:

    For all of you who live in America and have the chance to call, please do so! If I lived in America I would be calling right now, but since I don't this is the most I can do...

    I know no one responded to this thread, but I just thought I'd update you all on it anyways.

    The law was passed after all. You can go here to read more about it and see pictures.

    ??? I totally missed this thread somehow when it was current. How discouraging. Thanks for the info, Ann.
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)

    Thanks for the responses

    I know this sort of stuff is highly disliked by some people, so I'm kind of weary about posting it but at the same time I want to get this out in the open... Get what I mean?

    Here's another current law thingy... but be WARNED, there's a really sad picture on that page.

    You're right C.C.'s Mom, the links in my two first posts have been taken off now... Sorry! I guess they delete old news that isn't valid anymore or something.

    Then I don't know if my eyes were playing tricks on me, but did you edit your post? In any case, I think it said something about the EU having disallowed animal testing for cosmetics before I clicked reply and that part dissapeared, and if that is true then I am SUPER happy!!! I'm gonna see if I can look that up right now to make sure it's true, so thanks for letting me know about that! I had no clue... and this would be the first time I am happy with the EU.
