I'm imploring you to do away with embryonic stem cell research. As I understand it, that which has been done so far has been unsuccessful in treating any diseases, while adult stem cells, on the other hand, have been quite effective in fighting several ailments, such as cicle cell anemia. It's immoral & unethical as well, since it takes the life of an unborn baby. I get upset at the thought that my tax dollars could contribute to this, mainly because those who could from the private sector won't due to the failure of experiments to this point (they must think enough have been done, or they'd help with costs). Thanks for your attention!
