See if your Senator voted to destroy human life.
Bottom line adult stem cells do not destroy human life AND are much more effective in treating diesaes as the cells can be harvested from the patient or close relative that is a DNA match.
But I guess its easier to vote along your party lines to actually look at the FACTS.
