Best, Kathrynne *************************************************************** Tell Bush if he should support stem cell research Date: Sun, 24 Jun 2001 10:25:52 -0400 From: [log in to unmask] To: [log in to unmask] Dear Vote.com voter, The Bush administration is divided over whether the government should fund medical research that uses stem cells from human embryos. Supporters of federal funding - including some who oppose abortion - say this research is logical, ethical and scientifically valuable. Opponents contend that human life is destroyed in the process, since embryos are destroyed in the process of isolating stem cells. Should federal funding be used for embryonic stem cell research? Vote.com has just launched an online referendum asking that question. When you vote on this issue at http://www.vote.com we'll send your opinion to Congress and President Bush. Please make your vote count, and ask your friends and family to vote too. Thank you for participating! http://www.vote.com -- Kathrynne Holden, MS, RD Author: "Eat well, stay well with Parkinson's disease" "Constipation and Parkinson's" -- audiocassette & guidebook "Guidelines for Medical Nutrition Therapy for Parkinson's disease" & Risk Assessment Tools "Risk for malnutrition and bone fracture in Parkinson's disease," J Nutr Elderly.
