Rep. Nancy Mace demands Fauci answer for 'cruel, taxpayer-funded experiments on puppies'

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) sent a letter to Dr. Anthony Fauci and the National Institutes of Health demanding answers to reports that taxpayer money from his department was used to subject dogs to abusive testing.

"Yesterday, I sent a letter to Dr. Fauci regarding cruel, taxpayer-funded experiments on puppies; debarking before drugging and killing them," the South Carolina Republican tweeted Saturday along with a copy of the letter. "Thankful to my 23 democrat and republican colleagues who signed on. This is disgusting. What say you @NIH."
