Here are some suggested talking points:

  • I’m a constituent calling to urge Representative [your representative’s name here] to cosponsor the bipartisan Cease Animal Research Grants Overseas, or CARGO, Act (HR 1085).
  • The National Institutes of Health fails to ensure that foreign laboratories meet any animal welfare standards. The CARGO Act would shut off NIH’s funding of cruel experiments on animals—such as addicting dogs to opioids and causing strokes in monkeys—in foreign labs.
  • The CARGO Act would also help prevent corruption and the waste of taxpayer dollars.
