More than 5 long years into President Bush's short-sighted, cruel policy restricting stem cell research, America once again has the chance to reverse it -- and strike a blow for hope.
The House of Representatives has already passed a bill to overturn President Bush's restrictions. The Senate is expected to vote on this bill, Senate Bill 5, this week.
Write your Senators now, and tell them to support Senate Bill 5
Although stem cell research has bipartisan support, "pro-death" activists are working hard to torpedo this bill, and take hope away from millions of Americans. Some Senators have put up another bill, S 30, cynically called the "The Hope Offered through Principled, Ethically-Sound Stem Cell Research Act." The problem is -- it actually imposes additional restrictions on stem cell research. In short, it's a crock. But some senators apparently think their constituents are so stupid that they'll fall for a warm fuzzy title. In short, they think you're a moron.
Senate Bill 5 is the real deal. Senate Bill 5 is the stem cell bill supported by doctors, researchers, and patient advocates across the nation. Please write your Senators today. Tell them to support Senate Bill 5. And tell them -- you are not a moron.
