Without a doubt, stem cell research will lead to the dramatic improvement in the human condition and will benefit millions of people.

Stem cell research can revolutionize medicine, more than anything since antibiotics.

Now science has presented us with a hope called stem cell research, which may provide our scientists with many answers that have for so long been beyond our grasp.

Stem cell research holds out the promise of finding cures and treatments for a wide range of diseases.

More important is the fact that embryonic stem cell research could lead to new treatments and cures for the many Americans afflicted with life-threatening and debilitating diseases.

We have a lot to gain through furthering stem cell research, but medical breakthroughs should be fundamentally about saving, not destroying, human life. Therefore, I support stem cell research that does not destroy the embryo.

Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life and give hope for life to millions of people.

Stem cells are probably going to be extremely useful.

Our focus should be on the more than 70 cures and treatments that have been successfully produced from other forms of stem cell research that do not destroy a human life.

Mr. Speaker, the scientific evidence is overwhelming that embryonic stem cells have great potential to regenerate specific types of human tissues, offering hope for millions of Americans suffering from debilitating diseases.
