WASHINGTON, January 30, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback
introduced a bill on Wednesday to ban all human cloning, including the use of human embryos for experimentation.
"This president can walk and chew gum at the same time, and he'll make cloning a priority, despite what's happening in Iraq," said a spokesman for Sen. Brownback, a Kansas Republican.
The House of Representatives has already passed a ban on all cloning, but it was blocked last year by Senate Democrats. Most Senators oppose "reproductive cloning" but there remains resistance, particularly from Democrats, over "therapeutic cloning" to extract stem cells in the mistaken ideological belief that they have more research potential than adult stem cells.
