A bill to reauthorize this great program passed congress 415-2. The lone no votes?
Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA)
Lauren Boebert (CO)

Why?!? Is there something wrong with trying to save people who need this? One of you conservative fellows help me out here...

Stab in the dark here. There was some sort of pork in the bill they disagreed with. There is always pork attached to bills.

I just read the bill... it’s 6 pages only focused on reauthorizing this registry that was created in 2005. It uses the words “Stem Cells”, but in order for that to freak them out they would have had to put no thought or effort into researching what was being discussed because there is nothing nefarious here. The no votes are just pure evil and that’s not a political statement against them. It’s an opinion of them as human beings.

I've got to admit the Republicans sure have killed some very worthy bills in the past.

Gee Bryce you seem to have overlooked many of those.
