Thank Senator Corzine!
StemPAC is proud to salute New Jersey Senator Jon Corzine -- a true stem cell champion. As you may know, Senator Corzine is running for Governor of New Jersey. He's waging a fierce battle, with election day just over a week away.
Well, he's been talking about stem cells, and today he launched a particularly powerful ad. It features a young quadriplegic man, Carl Riccio, who urges support for Corzine and for the stem cell research that might someday allow him to walk again. You can watch the ad here:

This is a big step forward for the stem cell fight, and we need to show our support. We need to show that when leaders of national stature adopt stem cell research as a cause, and support it aggressively -- we will back them up. Please take a minute, and show your support for Senator Corzine by doing the following:
1) Leave a thank you comment on his blog, at the following story:

It takes a minute, but it's a powerful way to make a public statement
2) Sign his "pledge for stem cell support" at:

3) Pass on this message, and tell others to do the same.
Please help us thank Senator Corzine, and encourage others to follow his lead.
Stay tuned for more.The fight isn't over -- it's just begun .

Mr. Corzine, I certainly hope you intend these stem cells to come from the person in needs own umbilical cord, or adult stems or anything EXCEPT human embryos. I would fight and vote against any attempt at killing babies for that purpose.
