I missed that. Thanks for the continuing information.

I still don't see why the government can't regulate the private industry without providing funds. They regulate the stock market; they regulate broadcast stations; they regulate all sorts of things for which they don't provide funding.

It seems to me that NIH could require companies involved in this practice to document the sources of their stem cells and submit to audit of their books, if Congress passed such a law.

I missed the fact that the House had already passed that awful bill. Rereading your post, I see that you do have a point on trying to get the best out of a bad bill, particularly if it looks like it is veto-proof.

I just don't like this at all. The House should be ashamed.
