Those of you who read my blog last session may recall the amount of attention I gave to a bill that would grant taxpayer funding to embryonic stem cell research at the University of Minnesota. The bill narrowly passed the House Wednesday. It passed the Senate last session. The bill's going to conference committee to reconcile the different versions.
I don't expect Governor Pawlenty to sign the bill, and considering the 71-62 vote in the House, it doesn't look like an override is possible.
I could always be wrong, however.
Embryonic Stem Cell Research is dastardly in and of itself, but it also leads down a slippery slope of continued denial of human dignity to the weakest and voiceless.
