Ray, where do you live? -------Original Message------- From: rayilynlee Date: 01/02/2007 11:11:32 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: 110th Congress & ESCR House Democrats intend to pass a raft of popular measures as part of their well-publicized plan for the first 100 hours of the 110th Congress. They include tightening ethics rules for lawmakers, raising the minimum wage, allowing more research on stem cells and cutting interest rates on student loans. This Thursday is your chance to make your position known re embryonic stem cell research. Please email your senators and representatives. If you google their names their sites will come up. We need a VETO PROOF majority - 290 votes out of 435 for the House and 67 out of 100 for the Senate. This should not be a Republican vs. Democrat issue. HR 810 passed because of Republican and Democrat votes. I don't think it should be a religious issue either. Mormons like Orrin Hatch and Catholics like Pelosi and Kennedy support ESCR Everyone is vulnerable to devastating disease or injury. We have an opportunity to start the long process of bringing hope to millions of people with expanded stem cell research.
