Attempt to Ban All Human Cloning in Missouri Delayed.(Brief article)
Missouri citizens who attempted to place a measure on the November 2008 ballot that would have banned all forms of human cloning will have to wait until 2010 to try again. An appeals court considering changes to the ballot language issued a ruling just days before 150,000 signatures needed to be filed with the state, making it impossible for cloning opponents to gather names in time for this year's election, according to the Daily Record.
Sponsored by a coalition of grassroots organizations called Cures without Cloning (CWC), the ballot initiative would have closed a loophole in Amendment Two, which was approved by voters in 2006. The amendment allowed "somatic cell nuclear transfer," a cloning method in which human embryos are created but destroyed for researchalso known as "clone and kill."
But the ballot summary written by Secretary of State Robin Carnahan mischaracterized the measure, supporters contended. Carnahan wrote that it would "redefin[e] the ban on human cloning or attempted human cloning to criminalize and impose civil penalties for some existing research, therapies and cures."
