Senator Jim Talent Opposes Missouri Stem Cell Initiative

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) U.S. Senator Jim Talent (R-Mo.) issued the following statement:

"I personally cannot support the initiative because I've always been opposed to human cloning and this measure would make cloning human life at the earliest stage a constitutional right."

"As I've repeatedly said, at the federal level, I will continue to support new alternatives and research that hold promise to give us get exactly the stem cells we want to relieve human suffering without cloning.

"I would encourage every Missourian to study the initiative carefully and make up their own minds on this very difficult moral issue."
