Status[?]: passed

Voting deadline: June 2071
Description[?]:
| I pose the question, why should animals be needlesly torchered in the pursuit of the ongoing superficial nature of our society? Animal testing is only 34% accurate and cannot with a satisfactory level display the effects of these products on humans. I am not only questioning the ethical implications of cosmetic testing on animals, I am also questioning the reliability of these methods and call immediatley for the suspension of these procedures for the safety of animals and humans alike. I appeal to the morale and common sensical attributes and beginals of the memebers of the house. Overturn injustice and consider the public safety issues related to this barbaric practise. |

| Message | Our Dear Fellow Citizens! Please, bear in mind any potential consequences of this action. 1. Current regulation allows the development of the chemical industry in such a way, that every single innovation on the market is safe and contributes to our HEALTH. 2. Laboratory bred animals serve our society so that no additional sacrifices had to be made. And that is, for the benefit of every citizen! We appeal to Your wise reasoning: Imagine a libra, a scale, where on one hand you have the lifes of Dorvikians, on the other - minor population of laboratory animals. Who would you choose..? |

| Message | Not every innovation on the market is safe. Just because something works on an animal doesn't mean it will work on us. |
