A watchdog group concerned with animal experimentation has presented Congresswoman Jackie Walorski with an award.

The White Coat Waste Project presented the 2nd District Representative with one of their 2019 Congressional Waste Warrior awards. It reflects what the group calls her “outstanding leadership in ending wasteful and cruel taxpayer-funded animal experimentation.”

The group says Walorski was instrumental in phasing out experiments on dogs, cats, primates and more, and introduced legislation to retire healthy animals from federal labs when testing ends.
