Withdrawn / Clinton on Stem Cell Research

Hillary ClintonWords: Clinton supports embryonic stem cell research. “I’ve worked on helping to boost funding for research to look for cures and a way to prevent so many devastating diseases. And we know that stem cell research holds the key to our understanding more about what we can do.”

Actions: Clinton voted FOR allowing embryonic stem cell research (2005) and FOR extending research to more stem cell lines (2007).

 

UPDATE: Senator Hillary Clinton criticizes Pres. George Bush over stem-call research.: “The president of the united states has been leading an assault on science and research, and it’s not only in their budget priorities. I mean think about it. The two priorities of this president have been the war in iraq, and tax cuts for the wealthy. neither of which he’s paid for, while he has cut the budget for the national institutes of health and national cancer institute.”
