H.R ___
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Representative Julie-Ann Catungal introduced the following bill which we referred to the Committee on __________. Animal Testing Bill
Section One:
This bill will set rules to any make-up company creating cosmetic products for humans. Companies who create the make-up must have the product tested on animals before testing on humans.
Section Two:
Congress hereby finds and declares that cosmetics has been flawed because of it’s lack of sufficient research. In order to fulfill an efficient research (synonym), cosmetic companies should undergo animal testing. Products created by the company should first go through animal research, if it does not cause problems it then shall

Animal experiments have helped us better the lives of humans. If we test medicines and cosmetics on animals we can first ensure the safety of it, before the product being tested on humans.
While many people think we are using animals to benefit ourselves, these experiments are also benefiting animals. When we use animals for research, people should know that it is not just benefitting us but it is really helping improve the life expectancy of an an animal and future as well. Animals are living better because of animal research. Pets and livestocks are living more comfortable. More than 90 medications developed for humans are used to treat pets, farm animals and wildlife. A number of medical treatments and vaccines used to treat animals were originally developed for humans through animal research. If vaccines were not tested on animals, animals could have died from rabies, feline leukemia, infectious hepatitis virus, tetanus, anthrax, and canine parvovirus.
Animal research has helped improve lives for both humans and animals.Animals research can help improve the scientific, medical, and cosmetic research for the future. With the help of animal research, we help better the lives of the future people and animals. If we test any products such as medicines and make-up on animals first, we can ensure the
Countless medical advances have been made as a direct result of animal testing. Cures and preventions of diseases have been discovered and tested for safety by using animals. Vaccines have also been created for various reasons such as influenza, rabies, tetanus, infectious
Research groups do not allow abuse of animals in any form and they designate certain people to take care of the animals. All humans benefit from animal research in a certain way. Thanks to animal research, vaccines have been developed for polio, diphtheria, and measles. Chemotherapy treatments and insulin treatments were tested and developed thanks to animal research. With animal research, researchers were able to perform cardiac bypass surgery, perform organ transplants, and place stints through the femoral artery instead of open heart surgery. Under proper conditions, animal research can accomplish many things. Animal research can help humans understand diseases, create vaccines, create antibiotics perform surgeries to extend life, treat cancer, create pharmaceuticals that are safe to be consumed by humans and animals, and create ways to help benefit humans and animals walk easier or comfortably. Thanks to animal research, human medicine has advanced in extraordinary
Everyone has probably worn or has owned something animal tested, whether they’ve known it or not. Animal testing has been around since the early ADs but was most commonly known for starting about 150 years ago with the rise of physiology as a science. As “Companies That Still Use Animal Testing” says, these testings have gone down a lot with new developments for these kind of testing but there are still many major companies such as L’oreal, Clorox, Covergirl, MAC, Pantene, Dove, Avon and hundreds of other companies you’ve probably used. These companies torture these animals and even kill them with their products just so there is yet another brand of shampoo or another brand of makeup. Animals have chemicals rubbed in their fur, eyelids fused together, and are forced to starve inside of these facilities everyday. Furthermore, animal experimentation should be illegal and replaced with other forms of non animal-human subjects.
To begin, experimenting on animals is good because it helps to create medicines and different health products that are safe for humans. It is crucial to human health. It saves millions of human lives each year. It helps scientists to develop various drugs, vaccines, and antibiotics. Professor Sir George Radda explained in the article “Animal Research: A Necessary Measure” that “Animal research is essential to tackling major twenty first century health problems such as cancer and heart disease. Without the use of animals it would be impossible, in many cases, to develop drugs or any sort of medical treatment” (Radda). Testing on animals is something that is needed to be done to create many different health and medical products. As the quote explains, it has helped experts a lot with tackling the problem of cancer and heart disease. In addition, animals closely resemble humans, which helps scientists to create different medical treatments, and ensure that they are safe for human use. That also helps doctors in the surgical field, to make sure they do not mess up. As Rebecca Weitz explained in the article “Animal Research: A Necessary Measure,” that “Surgical protocol for modern day kidney surgery was only made possible by first experimenting and perfecting it on dogs. Potential cures for cancer that are currently underway would not be possible without the availability of animal experimentation” (Weitz). This quote shows that without the use of animals, various medical treatments would be very difficult, and maybe even impossible. Animal experimentation provides a safe zone, and not having it for things could be potentially deadly. It also makes doctors able to perfect things like surgery without harming humans. Overall, animals play a huge role in making sure
Thanks to animal research, many diseases that once killed millions of people are now either treatable or curable. Animal testing has not only benefit humans, but animals as well. Some animal testing has lead to life saving and life extending treatments for many of the animals used for testing. A complete alternative to animal testing has yet to be discovered.
According to Martha mc Sally, the Arizona congressional district representatives’ humane Act its bad to use animals for testing the safety of finished cosmetic products. This legislation that was supported by about 80% of the cosmetic producing companies in the industry was seeking to protect the life of animals from valueless test experiments. In the same spirit, the
Each year, thousands of animals are brutally tortured in laboratories, in the name of cosmetic research. A movement to ban animal testing for cosmetic purposes has been gaining popularity, with many companies hopping on the bandwagon against this research. New alternatives have been developed to eliminate the necessity to test on animals. This is only a small beginning of what is necessary to end these immoral acts. Animal testing in cosmetics is useless and cruel, and can be accomplished by other methods of research to end the suffering of animals.
Everyday cosmetic products that many people use, such as lipsticks, shampoo, face wash, etcetera, are verified to be safe using animal testing. Chemical burns and other short term ailments are very serious concerns that plague Americans and the knowledge that the products they use will not harm them and their families is possible because of animal testing. Also long term effects, such as cancer, have been discovered through animal product testing and promptly stopped saving countless lives. “NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS YOU’RE THE GUINEA PIG” (Source C). Living day to day with the risk that the products trusted to use on your children and yourself is enough to validate
Animal testing is not only beneficial to human but also animals, at least to those who are not used in the experiments, such as pets and endangered species. Along with researching for new treatments and medicines for
Millions of animals every year are being used in labs to test cosmetics. This problem has become a worldwide issue and the U.S. needs to make a change by prohibiting the use of animals in testing cosmetics for safe use.
Animal testing has long played a part in the science of testing, and it still plays a very important role in the medical world. Testing on animals in order to create a cure for AIDS is one thing, but testing on animals for human vanity is another. Animal testing is used to test the safety of a product. It has kept some very unsafe substances out of the cosmetic world. However, in this day in age, animal testing is not the only way to test the safety of a product. Animal testing in cosmetics has decreased over the years. However, it is still used by many companies in America. Animal testing is not only cruel, but it is also unnecessary in today’s advanced scientific world.
Millions of animals are being unneedlessly tested on for cosmetics, even though there are plenty of alternatives available and most of the results are unreliable or not applicable to humans. Although the fight against animal testing has made huge progress recently, America has yet to stop this cruel practice and chooses to torture animals while other countries are making a stop to the testing (“Animal Testing 101”).
By studying animals we learn more about illnesses that afflict human beings and other animals. Animals are used to develop, test, and make new medical products. We should use a variety of animals for research because we can get new cures, learn about new human and animal anatomy, learn new information, and what affects the animals’ bodies as well as ours, although most of experimenting and testing does harm to the animals unfortunately.
Animal experimentation is essential to form new medicines and advance in scientific knowledge. Animal testing first starred in the 19th century and has been going on ever since. It started because British wanted to make a chemical drugs and it needed to be tested on animals. For the safety of not taking people's lives. Without animal research there will probably not be any cures for disease. Animal testing on mice have helped find a cure for polio which was a deadly disease. Animal testing is essential to form new medicines and advance in scientific knowledge and for cosmetics use.
Animals should be used for research and Experimentation because if the animals get sick or show any signs of acting abnormal then the scientists know it isn’t safe for humans to use. Animal research has played a big role in nearly every medical breakthrough over the last decade. Animals have the same organ system that perform the same task, which helps determine if what is being tested is safe for humans to use. Most of the medicines animals use the same medicine as humans like antibiotics, pain killers, and many more this helps to see if the medicine cures the animals without any harmful consequences then it would be safe and useful for humans to use.
