  • White Coat Waste Project (WCW) was the lead witness at a historic House Oversight Committee hearing on wasteful taxpayer-funded animal experiments
  • In our testimony, we outlined how the U.S. government is the world’s single largest funder of animal testing, wasting $20 billion a year on cruel and pointless experiments
  • We detailed how National Institutes of Health (NIH) has wasted over $240 million creating transgender lab animals, $2 billion shipped to foreign labs to abuse dogs and other animals, and more funded by Fauci and other bureaucrats
  • Elon Musk, Members of Congress, and other influencers helped our message go viral
  • Musk called Fauci’s animal tests exposed by WCW “Terrible!”

Last week, White Coat Waste Project’s Senior Vice President was the lead witness at a House Oversight Committee hearing chaired by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) titled, “Transgender Lab Rats and Poisoned Puppies: Oversight of Taxpayer Funded Animal Cruelty.” 

WCW was joined by rescued lab beagles Beasley, Nellie, and Oliver, the latter two of whom were saved from the NIH’s and Dr. Fauci’s abusive lab supplier.

In her opening remarks, Chairwoman Mace cited WCW and its investigations exposing billions in wasteful and cruel government animal tests, including millions wasted by the National Institutes of Health to create transgender lab animals:

In our opening statement to the Committee, we explained how the US government wastes over $20 billion a year on animal tests at home and abroad. We highlighted some of our previous high-profile investigations of NIH’s Coke Hounds tests, hamster fight club, and the DOD’s cat constipation experiments. We explained how 26 animal labs in China still are approved to receive NIH funding and that one lab is currently getting tax dollars to abuse 300 beagles per week.

We also shared new details about how the NIH has wasted an estimated $240 million on experiments to create transgender lab animals, 95 percent of which were funded by Dr. Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).   

Our exchange with Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) about this reckless spending raised a lot of eyebrows:

We testified to Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) about how Dr. Fauci funded and personally conducted cruel and wasteful experiments on primates and other animals, which went viral:

In response to the conversation, Elon Musk commented and called Fauci’s testing “Terrible!”

Media outlets around the world also covered our exposés discussed at the hearing:

The hearing was far-reaching and we even shocked lawmakers with the true story of how we shut down kitten cannibalism experiments and the federal government’s largest cat lab, the USDA’s Kitten slaughterhouse.

We explained to Rep. Boebert how Dr. Fauci funded most of the government’s grotesque animal experiments using human fetal tissue:
