The AAMC joined 30 organizations in a May 30 letter (PDF)opposing the Save Pets, Animals, and Research Ethics Act (SPARE, H.R. 1802). The bill, led by Reps. Nicole Malliotakis (R-N.Y.) and Aaron Bean (R-Fla.), would prohibit the use of animals in federally funded research facilities for experimentation, testing, and biomedical research [refer to Washington Highlights, March 7]. The letter states that "Implementation of the SPARE Act would halt critical, lifesaving research happening at American institutions, push research infrastructure overseas to countries with fewer animal protections, and restrict American innovation in the biological and biomedical fields."
