Taxpayer, here’s your WCW ROI update:

✅ Shut down all USDA cat experiments
✅ Closed every Veterans Affairs (VA) dog lab
✅ Erased every VA cat lab
✅ Decimated all dog labs at the National Institutes of Health (NIH)
✅ And now?

White Coat Waste just got the U.S. Navy to permanently BAN ALL testing on dogs
and cats.

Meanwhile, the legacy animal rights groups have accomplished:

❌ ZERO government dog lab closures in 20 years

❌ ZERO government cat labs ended in 40+ years

They settled into a culture of losing.
WCW is ending it—with you.

WCW Team



P.S. Red paint never closed a lab. Your support for WCW just banned testing on pets
[[link removed]] at the U.S. Navy. Much more below.

Taxpayer, you just made history… AGAIN:

“Secretary of the US Navy John Phelan terminated all the department’s testing on
cats and dogs. This came after a lengthy campaign from the White Coat Waste
Project. ”
[[link removed]]

— Townhall

Just 10 days after we shut down the Navy’s $10 million cat lab—where crippled
cats were electro-shocked for constipation and erectile dysfunction tests—the
Navy made it official:

All dog and cat experiments are now permanently banned.
( Keep reading
[[link removed]] to see how we did it.)

Let that sink in, Taxpayer. Because of you, no more dogs or cats will suffer in Navy labs—ever again.

White Coat Waste investigators uncovered the abuse. Secretary Pete Hegseth cut
the funding. And together, we didn’t just destroy one cat lab
[[link removed]] — we ended all future dog and cat testing by the U.S. Navy.

I’ve personally adopted cats rescued from labs shut down by White Coat Waste, so
this win isn’t just a milestone—it’s personal. And I know you feel the same.

Pets are family. But for decades, our government has tortured them behind closed doors—while
legacy animal rights groups got comfortable with a culture of losing.

That era is ending. Because you are ending it.

This is what winning looks like. Let’s keep going.

You Give. We Win. They Survive.

VICTORY: Navy Bans All Dog and Cat Testing after WCW Investigation

* Following years of White Coat Waste (WCW) efforts, the Trump Administration’s
Department of the Navy has announced that it is banning all wasteful and
cruel experiments on dogs and cats.
* The Navy’s historic announcement comes just ten days after the Pentagon
canceled a $10 million cat experiment funded by the Navy. WCW uncovered how
the lab crippled and electroshocked cats in constipation, incontinence and
erectile dysfunction experiments.
* The Navy Secretary’s team confirmed that WCW’s investigation and campaign
prompted the policy change.
* WCW investigations exposed how the Pentagon has been wasting millions of
taxpayers’ money to maim cats and poison puppies in U.S. and Chinese labs.
* The DOD’s decision follows pressure from Elon Musk, Laura Loomer, military
veterans and dozens of bipartisan lawmakers.
* In early May, WCW shut down the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) last
in-house dog lab following a nine-year campaign.
* WCW’s top priority for Trump’s first 100 days was defunding dog and cat labs.
* WCW is the only animal protection organization to shut down federal feline
labs in at least 40 years.



Following years of White Coat Waste investigations, lobbying, grassroots
advocacy—and, most importantly, our blockbuster exposé of cat constipation experiments funded by the Pentagon
[[link removed]] —the Trump Administration’s Department of the Navy has announced that it is
banning all testing on dogs and cats.

Navy Secretary John Phelan made the announcement in a new video:

The Navy’s move comes just 10 days after the Department of Defense canceled a $10 million Navy experiment
[[link removed]] . WCW uncovered how a Navy-funded lab crippled and electroshocked cats in
constipation, incontinence and erectile dysfunction experiments.

The Trump Administration’s decision was prompted by WCW investigations exposing
how the Navy and other DOD service branches wasted tens of millions of
taxpayers’ money crippling kittens
[[link removed]] and poisoning puppies
[[link removed]] in cruel experiments in U.S. and Chinese laboratories—and that some of this
reckless spending continued under Trump.


[[link removed]]
On May 17, 2025, the Pentagon responded to WCW’s investigation—and canceled the
$10 million cat lab contract. Victory.

The Navy Secretary’s team confirmed
[[link removed]] that WCW’s investigation and campaign with Laura Loomer prompted the policy
change .


[[link removed]]

WCW started the lobbying and advocacy campaign to end it:

* WCW sued
[[link removed]] the DOD.
* WCW exposés sparked widespread media
[[link removed]] coverage.
* WCW passed bipartisan House legislation
[[link removed]] —the first-ever vote to defund
[[link removed]] the Pentagon’s cat abuse.
* WCW united a big tent coalition for cats: Elon Musk
[[link removed]] , Laura Loomer
[[link removed]] , Sen. Rand Paul
[[link removed]] (R-KY), Rep. Jared Moscowitz (D-FL), and a Ben & Jerry’s
[[link removed]] founder.
* WCW rallied thousands of grassroots supporters to join the fight—donating, signing
petitions, and demanding action.

RESULT: The Navy BANNED testing on pets.

The Navy’s decision also follows viral bipartisan advocacy in support of WCW’s
campaign. Laura Loomer
[[link removed]] and Elon Musk
[[link removed]] supercharged our investigation, the latter of whom posted about the Navy’s cat
testing, “Will ask @DOGE [[link removed]] to put an end to animal cruelty.”


[[link removed]]
On May 2, 2025, Elon Musk responded to WCW’s investigation—and made DOGE take
action. It worked.


[[link removed]]
On April 27, 2025, Laura Loomer shared our investigation. Elon Musk responded.


[[link removed]]

WCW built a “strange bedfellows” coalition for cats and dogs abused by the Navy.
We united these MAGA leaders, libertarians, and liberal icons such as Ben Cohen
[[link removed]] , the legendary Ben & Jerry’s co-founder.


[[link removed]]

Now, thanks to leadership from Secretary Phelan, Secretary Hegseth, and
President Trump, WCW has permanently scrapped the Navy’s cat-a-strophic waste to
the litterbox of history.


[[link removed]]

Our #1 priority for Trump’s first 100 days
[[link removed]] was defunding dog and cat testing.

The DOD’s move also comes weeks after the Trump Administration shut down
[[link removed]] the National Institutes of Health’s last in-house beagle lab following a
nine-year WCW campaign.

We’re proud that federal agencies under Trump are cutting wasteful and dangerous
[[link removed]] animal tests
[[link removed]] in the U.S. and China
[[link removed]] uncovered by WCW, saving countless tax dollars and animals’ lives.

This is great news for taxpayers and pet owners as it sends a message to
big-spending animal abusers across the federal government: Stop the Money. Stop
the Madness!
