Missouri 2006: The Stem Cell Initiative
| It goes beyond the science. The issue of embryonic stem cell research is a moral decision that asks: Is a human egg that contains 46 chromosomes a human being or is it a mass of cells yielding important new cures and treatments?
In November, Missourians will weigh in with their votes on Amendment 2, a stem cell initiative. Missouri is the only state where the embryonic stem cell issue is being put to a vote this year. In the weeks leading to the election, citizens, pundits and politicians speak passionately about their ethical beliefs on embryonic stem cell research, one of the most scientifically complex and morally charged issues of the 2006 election year.
