  • Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life and give hope for life to millions of people. -- Jim Ramstad
  • Embryonic stem cell research wears no political stripes - it is embraced by conservatives, liberals, Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. -- Diana DeGette
  • Embryonic stem cell research has the potential to alleviate so much suffering. Surely, by working together we can harness its life-giving potential. -- Nancy Reagan
  • Embryonic stem cell research is legal in America, and nothing in the administration's current policy affects that legality; 400 lines are currently being used to conduct embryonic stem cell research, both in the private sector and by the Federal Government. -- Roger Wicker
  • Embryonic Stem Cell -- Stem Cells
  • Embryonic stem cell research is at the leading edge of a series of moral hazards. -- George W. Bush
  • Embryonic cells, by their very definition, are not from your body. Right now, inside your body, you have everything necessary to build what you need now. -- Robert Clark
  • Embryonic stem-cell research requires the destruction of life to create a stem cell. That's why I think we've got to be very careful in balancing the ethics and the science. -- George W. Bush
  • In fact, many nations currently refuse to support embryonic stem cell research of any kind. -- Nathan Deal
  • The refusal to acknowledge the scientific value of embryonic stem cell research is one more tragic misstep. -- Lois Capps
  • I'm very grateful that President Obama has lifted the restrictions on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. -- Nancy Reagan
  • The federal and state governments should ban the use of taxpayer funds to support cloning and embryonic stem cell research. -- Sandy Adams
  • I am opposed to both cloning and the destruction of human embryos and adamantly opposed to funding of embryonic stem cell research. -- Sandy Adams
  • There is an abundance of misinformation, exaggeration, and blatant lies being spread by interest groups regarding the prospects for embryonic stem cell research. -- Virginia Foxx
  • Sadly, embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years. -- Mike Pence
  • You cannot be against embryonic stem cell research and be intellectually and therefore morally consistent, if you're not also against in vitro fertilization. -- Ron Reagan
  • To date, embryonic stem cell research has not produced a single medical treatment, where ethical, adult stem cell research has produced some 67 medical miracles. -- Mike Pence
  • Under current federal policy on human embryonic stem cell research, only those stem cell lines derived before August 9, 2001 are eligible for federally funded research. -- Tom Allen
  • More important is the fact that embryonic stem cell research could lead to new treatments and cures for the many Americans afflicted with life-threatening and debilitating diseases. -- Ron Kind
  • There are no bona fide treatments available for embryonic stem cells. There is nothing in the laboratory, and there is certainly nothing in the clinics available to patients. -- Michael Burgess
  • There are many alternatives to embryonic stem cell research, alternatives with great potential. We need to support these and oppose creating life for the sole purpose of destroying it. -- Ernest Istook
  • Today, it is research with human embryonic stem cells and attempts to prepare cloned stem cells for research and medical therapies that are being disavowed as being ethically unacceptable. -- Paul Berg
  • Most of the scientific community believes that for the full potential of embryonic stem cell research to be reached, the number of cell lines readily available to scientists must increase. -- Ron Kind
  • Mr. Speaker, the scientific evidence is overwhelming that embryonic stem cells have great potential to regenerate specific types of human tissues, offering hope for millions of Americans suffering from debilitating diseases. -- Jim Ramstad
  • The U.S. has the finest research scientists in the world, but we are falling far behind other countries, like South Korea and Singapore, that are moving forward with embryonic stem cell research. -- Louise Slaughter
  • Through their work with fetal tissue, researchers hope to find ways to harness embryonic stem cells which have the ability to become any type of human cell and could provide new treatments for many illnesses. -- Tom Allen
  • Laura Bush went on national television during the week of my father's funeral and spoke out against embryonic stem cell research, pointing out that where Alzheimer's is concerned, we don't have proof that stem-cell treatment would be effective. -- Patti Davis
  • There's nothing more frustrating than seeing cynics sit there and say, 'Well, nobody can make any more money because Microsoft and Intel own everything.' Is the software industry mature, or is it embryonic? I would say it's embryonic. There will be a hundred more Microsofts, not just one. -- Michael J. Saylor
  • If out of concern over cloning, the U.S. Congress succeeds in criminalizing embryonic stem-cell research that might bring treatments for Alzheimer's disease or diabetes - and Dr. Fukuyama lent his name to a petition that supported such laws - there would be real victims: present and future sufferers of those diseases. -- Gregory Stock
  • Both in Britain and America, huge publicity has been given to stem cells, particularly embryonic stem cells, and the potential they offer. Of course, the study of stem cells is one of the most exciting areas in biology, but I think it is unlikely that embryonic stem cells are likely to be useful in healthcare for a long time. -- Robert Winston
  • I support stem cell research, including embryonic stem cell research. -- Bob Ehrlich
  • Over coffee and orange juice the embryonic suicide brightens visibly. -- Sylvia Plath
  • Ah, if only the best place for storing embryonic stem cells was Yucca Flat. -- James Lileks
  • I wholeheartedly support umbilical stem cell research, but also support embryonic stem cell research. -- Eliot Engel

  • I think the embryonic digital world had the same affect on me as the openness of the old American frontier. -- Chelsea Manning
  • Prayer is either a sheer illusion or a personal contact between embryonic, incomplete persons (ourselves) and the utterly concrete Person. -- C. S. Lewis
  • Mankind is still embryonic ... [man is] the bud from which something more complicated and more centered than man himself should emerge. -- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
  • I wondered whether the nuclear transfer techniques could be used to introduce purified macro-molecules into an egg, and hence into embryonic cells. -- John Gurdon
  • Within six months of starting my Ph.D. work in 1956, I had already obtained feeding tadpoles derived from transplanted nuclei of embryonic cells. -- John Gurdon
  • I am pro-life. I believe human life begins at conception. I also believe that embryonic stem cell research should be encouraged and supported. -- Bill Frist
  • I would like people to understand the rationale for my embryonic stem cell research decision and how the process became distorted over time. -- George W. Bush
  • The best that can be said about embryonic stem cell research is that it is scientific exploration into the potential benefits of killing human beings. -- Tom DeLay
  • There are no bona fide treatments available for embryonic stem cells. There is nothing in the laboratory, and there is certainly nothing in the clinics available to patients. -- Michael Burgess
  • The Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act would expand research on embryonic stem cells by increasing the number of lines stem cells that would be eligible for federally funded research. -- Steve Israel
  • I'm a supporter of embryonic stem cell research. I do think there are very important moral and also religious questions at stake in the debate over embryonic stem cell research. -- Michael Sandel
  • Any collective struggle that matters has to embrace education as the center of politics and the source of an embryonic vision of the good life outside of the imperatives of predatory capitalism. -- Henry Giroux
