One of the most important pro-life debates ever will occur in the U.S. Senate as early as February or 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 (sponsored by Senator Sam Brownback) that would truly ban human cloning (H.R. 2505, S. 790), and to oppose "clone and kill" legislation that would permit the establishment of human embryo farms, such as Senator Dianne Feinstein's S. 1758.

ACTION REQUIRED

Beginning immediately, pro-life citizens should write and phone the offices of both U.S. senators for their states.

(E-mail may also be used, but be sure to include a regular mailing address in the e-mail. Senators' e-mail addresses may be obtained at the website www.senate.gov.)

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 editors of local newspapers, highlighting the critical votes that senators will soon cast.

Here are the key message points:
