StemCell Research funding to be voted on January 11th--please call/write now!
Tell Congress: Vote for Stem Cell Research

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.

On January 11, 2007, the House of Representatives will vote on H.R. 3, a bill to overturn President Bush's restrictions. The Senate is expected to vote shortly thereafter. 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. Please write your members of Congress today, and ask them to support this bill.

Because President Bush may veto it, it is critical that we not only pass it -- but that we reach the 2/3 majority necessary to override the veto. Every vote counts -- and every email from you counts. So write your members today, tell them to support H.R. 3, and tell your friends to do the same.

Thanks, and please respond with your actions in order to kick this. I retain hope that I will see some promise for my chronic illness in my lifetime!

This bill is going to pass, but we need to pass it veto proof.

valuable stem cells.

Thanks for the link!
