2016 – Legislation Modernizing Chemical Testing is Enacted
After years of PETA campaigning, funding and promoting non-animal testing methods, The Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act is signed into law. By modernizing the American system of chemical toxicity testing and requiring, for the first time, that the Environmental Protection Agency reduce and replace the use of animals, the law will spare tens of thousands of animals the agony of chemical testing.
