Campaign Unavailable
We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit ASH Grassroots Network.The short explanation of this alert was:
Earlier this year, the House and Senate each passed their respective versions of the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act (H.R. 3 and S. 5). Slight differences between the two bills necessitated reconsideration by the House, which passed S. 5 on June 7. The bill will now be sent to the White House for President Bush's consideration. The President has indicated his intention to veto the bill. If vetoed, the Senate will try to override.
Now is the time for all research advocates to contact the White House to let President Bush know the importance of S. 5 and our anger and frustration if this is not enacted into law.
To send an e-mail to President Bush, simply complete the "Take Action" information to the right. ASH's on-line advocacy system provides the message and link to the White House. We encourage you to customize the message to President Bush as much as possible, emphasizing (1) your positive feelings about embryonic stem cell research, and (2) how expanding this research beyond the number of currently approved lines will benefit patients. We also encourage you to forward this message to colleagues and friends to increase participation.
