Stem Cell Veto

Today President Bush vetoed a bill that would have approved stem cell research.

70% of Americans support stem cell research yet the president, who supposedly represents us, has vetoed a bill that could pave the way for research that could eventually save millions of lives.

Write your representatives, please. Keep it short and sweet:

Please support the override of the president's veto to the stem cell research bill. Provide medical research the opportunity to use embryos, that would otherwise be destroyed, to gain life saving procedures from their work.

Go here to find and email your representative:

Go here to contact your senator:

Then urge your friends to do the same.

For those who are concerned that embryonic "farms" created to grow specimens specifically for research: A bill banning that practice has already passed congress. It will not happen.
