Sadly, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years.

I wholeheartedly support umbilical stem cell research, but also support embryonic stem cell research.

To date, embryonic stem cell research has not produced a single medical treatment, where ethical, adult stem cell research has produced some 67 medical miracles.

The refusal to acknowledge the scientific value of embryonic stem cell research is one more tragic misstep.

The first misconception is that embryonic stem cell research is not legal. The fact is, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal. Research on embryonic stem cells has taken place for years.

Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life and give hope for life to millions of people.
