Representative Arrington and Leader Book Introduce Legislation to Ban Cosmetic Testing on Animals

Posted on January 7, 2022

Representative Kristen Arrington (D- Kissimmee) has introduced HB 1279 to ban cosmetic testing on animals. The companion legislation, SB 1718 was filed by Senate Democratic Leader Lauren Book (D-Plantation).

“This bill will put an end to cruel and unnecessary testing of cosmetics on animals,” said Representative Arrington. “There are proven alternative testing methods that do not involve testing on live animals. This legislation will help prevent needless suffering and save the lives of countless animals.”

“No animal should have a cosmetic product shoved down their throats, slathered on their skin, or forced in their eyes when there are cruelty-free alternatives,” said Leader Book. “The federal government does not require animal testing for cosmetics and toiletries and it’s time that Florida joined with this common-sense solution to suffering.”
