Lawmakers urged to reject embryo research funding

The New York Catholic Conference has sent the following to members of its Public Policy Network:

The State Assembly has now included funding for cloning and embryonic stem cell research in its version of the 2006-2007 State Budget (A.10257)! Please urge your State Senator and Assembly member to reject this proposal to use your tax dollars to finance experimentation on living human embryos. Urge your representatives to fund ethical successful adult stem cell research instead. Now is the time to take action…the state budget must be finalized by April 1!
