Join the fight to turn the tide against animal cruelty in labs; sign to make Queenie's Law a reality and support a future where research advances without harm.
In the state of Michigan, a groundbreaking legislation named Queenie’s Law (HB 4849) is on the brink of changing the fate of countless animals subjected to painful experiments.
This law, inspired by the heart-wrenching story of Queenie, a dog who suffered in the name of research at Wayne State University, seeks to bring an end to the cruel treatment of dogs and cats in publicly funded institutions1.
Queenie’s ordeal is not a solitary case but a reflection of a widespread issue in scientific research, where animals endure invasive procedures without significant outcomes for human health. The proposed legislation aims to protect our beloved animals from unnecessary pain and champion humane alternatives to animal testing2.
The Harsh Reality Behind Lab Doors
Meredith Blanchard, from the National Anti-Vivisection Society, has shared with us the grim reality behind laboratory doors, where animals like Queenie are subjected to severe distress for experiments that often yield no tangible benefits3. The time has come to challenge the status quo and advocate for a science that respects all living beings.
A Call for Ethical Science
Queenie’s Law is more than legislation; it’s a moral imperative that calls for compassion and ethical responsibility towards animals. It confronts the loopholes in existing animal cruelty laws that leave research animals unprotected, pushing for stringent oversight and accountability in animal research4.
The support for Queenie’s Law is not just about saving animals in Michigan; it’s a stepping stone towards a national movement for the ethical treatment of animals in laboratories across all 50 states. By backing this law, we are not only giving a voice to the voiceless but also promoting a shift towards innovative research methods that do not harm animals.
