(2006-10-25) Missouri Stem Cell Research Amendment

The Missouri State Legislature was considering various bills that would have made certain types (embryonic?) of Stem Cell research illegal. So a group proposed a State Constitution Amendment.

The Lutheran Church/Missouri Synod opposes that amendment.

Michael J Fox is in an ad supporting Democratic Senate candidate Claire Mc Caskill, who supports the amendment (vs Jim Talent). It's been seen over a million times on YouTube.

• a number of other "stars" appeared in a counter-ad put together by the group "Missourians Against Human Cloning."

• Fox made another ad for Mary Land supporting Ben Cardin over Michael Steele.
