Representative Cathy Mc歇 (D-CA) introduced the Humane Cosmetics Act of 2025 in the House. The bill would prohibit the FDA from using federal funds to conduct or support required studies on cosmetic products that involve animal testing.
Why it matters: This is a legislative attempt to change how cosmetic safety is verified, moving away from animal testing toward non-animal alternatives. Its practical impact depends entirely on whether it passes both houses and is signed into law.
Who it affects
- Cosmetic manufacturers and importers
