The amendment says, in part: "None of the funds made available in this Act may be used for—(1) the creation of a human embryo or embryos for research purposes; or (2) research in which a human embryo or embryos are destroyed, discarded, or knowingly subjected to risk of injury or death."

Doesn't this mean that the funds made available in the "ACT", may be used for the purpose of human embryonic research, not other readily available government funds.

I think this inclusion was meant to appease and deceive the pro-life group.

Mia, you are correct. I think we have to many speed readers and this just went over their heads This statement means it only applies to these funds. You can bet there are other funds that will be used.
