What this bill would do

This bill, known as "Violet's Law," aims to amend the Animal Welfare Act. It seeks to allow for the adoption or non-laboratory placement of certain animals used in Federal research. Federal research facilities would be required to create standards to facilitate this process within one year of enactment. This applies to eligible animals that are no longer needed for research and are deemed suitable for release. Suitable animals include dogs, cats, nonhuman primates, guinea pigs, hamsters, or rabbits.
