Missouri is beginning to feel the folly of passing Amendment 2. One of the law’s provisions prevented the legislature from refusing to fund embryonic stem cell/human cloning research, if other areas of stem cell research is financed. I warned that this would force the legislature to either fund ESCR/cloning against its will, or refuse to fund stem cell research at all. This seems to be the cause of the refusal of the legislature to fund $300 million for building stem cell research facilities at a state university. Expect such contentiousness to continue in coming years as ESC/cloning advocates continue to try and push for Missouri to pay for their research, and its opponents continue to resist.
