Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would make it illegal to submit animal test data to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Department of Agriculture, the Environmental Protection Agency, or the Food and Drug Administration when the agency has determined a non-animal test method is available or has issued a waiver. Exceptions include data generated before the law takes effect, tests done abroad for foreign regulators, and tests an agency specifically requests. When animal testing is still used, companies would have to keep the number of animals and their pain to a minimum. Agencies could reject data that breaks these rules, fine violators up to $10,000 per violation, and would have to issue guidance within one year and publish yearly public reports on animal and non-animal testing.
