On the recordMay 18, 2005
in the coming days Congress will consider legislation to make taxpayer dollars available for what is known as embryonic stem cell research, setting the case for an imminent Presidential veto. In 2001, President Bush made the moral dimensions of scientific testing on human embryos clear. These are the principles. It is morally wrong to create human life to destroy it for research. Also, it is morally wrong to take the tax dollars of millions of pro- life Americans and use them to finance research that they find morally objectionable. The choice of our time was described millennia ago: See I set before you blessings and curses, life and death. Now choose life that you and your children may live. I urge my colleagues to stand for the sanctity of life at every level. Stand with President George W. Bush. Reject taxpayer funding of human embryo research. ____________________
