2019 Victories: Forcing HHS to End Ghoulish Contract to Create "Humanized Mice" Using Aborted Babies
[ACLJ] This year we scored a massive win in our ongoing fight for life. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under President Trump ended an alarming contract between the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and a California university that involved using aborted babies in medical research.

In what sounds like awful science fiction, NIH had hoped to create "humanized mice" for experimentation from the tissue of aborted babies. Let me say it again: humanized mice.

At the beginning of the year, we told you that we had issued a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to discover more about this unsettling experimentation being conducted by NIH, which had contracted with University of California San Francisco (UCSF) to "obtain the body parts from unborn babies to make at least two types of ’humanized mice.’"

When the ACLJ caught wind of this disgusting contract, we immediately initiated a legal advocacy campaign obtaining over a hundred-thousand petition signatures demanding an end to these ghoulish practices. We also filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in order to expose and put an end to this horror.

In a huge victory, HHS agreed with us, and officially shut down this twisted experimentation ‐ soon after receiving our FOIA request.

#2 In other chimeric future news (rushed straight from the front to the Daily Star by flying car!)...

"Look! Up in the sty!" "It's a ponkey!"
"What?" "Neither a pig nor a monkey,
It swings through the trees
With the greatest of ease--"
Crack! Kaboom! General gloom,
Swish of streetsweeper's broom.
"Well, it would, if it wasn't so chunky!"

Seriously, thanks. You two totally disproportionately tend to get me thinking (as in grimacing, grunting, and leaning into the pain, which -- tough to tell, I know ;-) -- is not really my thing).
