FROM: Coalition for the Advancement of Medical Research (CAMR) ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- June 7, 2007 Dear CAMR Member, We have yet another victory for supporters of stem cell research! Thanks to your help, our congressional champions, and the efforts of all the members of our incredible coalition, the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act (S.5) passed the House of Representatives today by a vote of 246-173. The bill will soon be sent to President George Bush with the hopes that he will change his position and sign the bill into law. As you know, President Bush vetoed a similar bill, H.R. 810, when it was presented to him last year. As CAMR stated in a letter to President Bush today, we hope he considers the suffering of millions as he decides the fate of S.5. His decision to sign this new bill, S.5, into law would translate into a renewed hope for those who have nowhere else to turn for cures and treatments. Now is the time to expand federal support for embryonic stem cell research, opening possible doors to new knowledge, therapies and cures. We need your help to encourage President Bush to change his position on this legislation. Please call the White House with a message of hope, urging President Bush to sign S.5, the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act, into law. The number for the White House opinion line is 202-456-1111. This number is only open from 9am to 5pm EST. You may also call the White House Switchboard at 202-456-1414. Thank you, Sean Tipton CAMR President www.camradvocacy.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
