Empowered Democrats pushing Embryonic Stem Cell Research?
I have been spending a lot of time looking around on blogs over the past few days. I found one which discussed the connection between science and the recent majority of Democrats in the house (the link is to the homepage, I couldn’t find the specific post later). Anyway, for those of you who are studying the Pros and Cons of Stem Cell Research, you should be aware that this has some big implications. The Bush administration, and the conservatives have been a leading cause in current regulation on how federal funds could be spent on Stem Cell Research. (That is not a critique, but it is true. Some will think that is good that they did it, others bad, but it is true). Anyway, if Democrats are able to push their agenda we will see a lot more money, and institutions, being dedicated to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. Since the new house is not yet in place, we don’t really know the full implications, but we can rest assured, that the stem cell debate is far from over. Embryonic Stem Cell Research should be moving forward.
So get ready for the Stem Cell Debate to escalate.
