Vermont H0014 prohibits the use of animals in product testing, except when no alternative methods are available.

Vermont H0014 aims to prohibit the use of animals in product testing, with exceptions for cases where no alternative test methods are available. It defines "alternative test method or strategy" as a method that does not use animals and provides equivalent or better scientific quality and relevance compared to traditional animal test methods. The bill also prohibits the use of nonanimal test methods for certain products, unless a State or federal agency has approved an alternative test method.
