| Message | We oppose this bill as we believe it could lead to the reproductive clonong of humans, with all the ethical concerns that this brings as well as catastrophic consequences for the health of the great majority of children born through this method. However we do support the use of therapeuatic cloning and stem cell technology to treat disease. |
