Nancy Mace Champions Animal Rights with Violet’s Law

Submitted by MAGA

Posted 2 hours ago

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) has made headlines once again with her reintroduction of Violet’s Law, a vital piece of legislation aimed at protecting laboratory animals.

This heartwarming initiative is named after a dog saved from a taxpayer-funded experimentation lab, and it calls for all federal laboratories to allow animals to be retired and adopted once their testing days are over.

Currently, over 40,000 animals in government labs face a grim fate, often killed instead of being given a chance at life.

Mace’s bill enjoys bipartisan support, reflecting a widespread desire among voters of all political stripes for a more humane approach. Recent polls reveal that an impressive 71% of Democrats and 72% of Republicans agree on the need for retirement, rather than termination, for these animals.


The initiative underscores the growing concern over the ethics of animal testing, especially following the revelations about government-funded experiments, including the controversial gain-of-function research linked to the Wuhan lab.

Making a strong case for her legislation, Mace stated, “It is unacceptable for federal labs to kill healthy animals who could be adopted and given a second chance at life.”

Supporting this measure further solidifies her commitment to responsible governance that resonates with conservative values, particularly regarding the sanctity of life.

The founder of the White Coat Waste Project, Anthony Bellotti, emphasized the significance of Violet’s Law, especially in the context of the Trump Administration's past efforts to cut wasteful spending on unnecessary animal testing.

“We secured the rescue of dozens of animals from federal labs, and we want to ensure the same is done moving forward,” Bellotti remarked, framing the legislation as a necessary step to uphold taxpayer accountability.

Mace's push for this law could not be more timely, given the current administration’s track record on such issues.

With the new Biden EPA showing reluctance to adopt such policies, Mace’s legislation represents a refreshing return to accountability and compassion that many Americans are seeking.

In a bipartisan environment, this proposal serves as a beacon of hope for thousands of animals left at the mercy of bureaucratic indifference.

By mandating retirement and release into loving homes, Violet’s Law is much more than legislation; it is a clarion call for a more ethical and compassionate approach to animal testing in America.
