FRIST ANNOUNCES STEM CELL VOTE SCHEDULE
WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, M.D., (R-Tenn.) today announced the following schedule for voting on stem cell legislation (S. 3504, S. 2754, and H.R. 810): "The Senate will take up the three stem cell bills on Monday, July 17, and will complete all action by Tuesday, July 18. There's tremendous promise in stem cell research, and I've worked long and hard with my colleagues to bring this serious ethical issue to the floor in a way that encourages thoughtful discussion and deliberation."

I so want this to pass and have it vetoed. Then, when the Dems take back the house and/or Senate in late January, this will be the first piece of legislation that will come back to the lame duck's desk, and this time, Bush will fail, not the legislation.
