  • Cong. Smith meets with the Keatings, a "snowflake family." Children Maggie and Will are former stored embryos.

President Obama forces taxpayers to subsidize the unethical over the ethical, the unworkable over what works, and hype & hyperbole over hope.

   President Obama forces taxpayers to subsidize the unethical over the ethical, the unworkable over what works, and hype & hyperbole over hope, said Congressman Chris Smith (NJ-4th) today at a press conference in response to the President’s decision to issue an executive order that allows taxpayer-funded human embryo research.
   Congressman Smith was joined by "Snowflake families" (children, who were formerly stored embryos and their parents), adult stem cell patients and concerned groups in Washington today.
