> HR 810 provides for research to be conducted using excess embryos from
> in vitro fertilization clinics which would otherwise be discarded.
> It would lift the restrictions on federal funding to only the stem cell
> lines created before Aug. 2001, imposed by Pres. Bush. Recent polls show

> just have to convince Congress to act.

>
> Go to http://capwiz.com/pan/issues/alert/?alertid=7092621
> and enter your zip code.
> You can use PAN's letter, edit it or compose your own.
