Urgent Congressional Alert:.(Brief Article)
One of the most important pro-life debates ever will occur in the U.S. Senate in March. The Senate will debate whether to approve legislation to ban the cloning of human embryos.
Please urge ALL U.S. senators to support the crucial legislation (S. 1899, sponsored by Senator Sam Brownback) that would truly ban human cloning, and to oppose "clone and kill" legislation that would permit the establishment of human embryo farms (such as Senator Harkin's S. 1893 and Senator Feinstein's S. 1758).
ACTION REQUIRED
Beginning immediately, pro-life citizens should phone, fax, and/or e-mail the offices of both U.S. Senators for their states.
Because of heightened security on Capitol Hill, regular mail is being delayed for long periods, and SHOULD NOT BE relied on at this time.
Senators' e-mail addresses, and in some cases fax numbers, may be obtained at the website www.senate.gov. (Always be sure to include your regular return mailing address in e-mails, so that the senator's staff can see that you are a constituent.)
Please utilize newsletters, church bulletins, call-in radio shows, and other means to alert other pro-life citizens to this crucial fight. Also, write short letters to the letters columns of local newspapers, highlighting the critical votes that senators will soon cast.
