We have a responsibility to promote stem cell research which could lead to treatments and cures for diseases affecting millions of Americans.

More important is the fact that embryonic stem cell research could lead to new treatments and cures for the many Americans afflicted with life-threatening and debilitating diseases.

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

Stem cell research holds out the promise of finding cures and treatments for a wide range of diseases.

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

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