Bill overview
This bill, the CARE Act of 2023, requires research facilities that receive funding from the National Institutes of Health to establish and implement policies for adopting out dogs, cats, and rabbits once they are no longer needed for research. It also aims to limit the liability of these facilities when placing animals for adoption through shelters or other organizations, promoting transparency and accountability in the treatment of animals used in research. The bill seeks to address a gap in federal regulations regarding post-research animal placement.
