Guest guest Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 The Great Ape Protection Act (H.R. 1326) is a Federal bill currently in Congress that would phase out invasive research on great apes, ban the breeding of these primates for experimentation, and permanently retire hundreds of chimpanzees to sanctuaries where they would be lovingly cared for instead of callously exploited for profit. The GAPA enjoys strong public support -- but powerful vivisectionist forces have mounted a campaign to defeat it (claiming passage will cost human lives), so we must counter their calculated deception with compassion for animals by urging our Representatives to pass it. You can learn more about the GAPA and one of the attempts to kill it by reading my latest blog post, or just take action using HSUS's " Humane Alert " on the issue. Also please forward the alert to your friends and family around the country, as this bill needs every supporter it can get.
