[IPp] Stem Cell Bill Coming Up for Senate Vote
I don't meant to get into anything political, but for those who support
embryonic stem cell research and may not have gotten alerts from jdrf or ada,
I
thought I would send this on. It is going to be close, so every call will
help. If the 888 number doesn't work you may need to contact your senators
dc
office directly. Ask to speak to or to leave a message for the health
aide.

guardian of Mike, 19.
