The news sparked renewed calls for the President to loosen his policy and allow further harvesting from embryos, this time without using animal tissue in the Petri dish. Senator John Kerry warns that if federal dollars aren't made available for new cell lines, Congress may yet wrest the policy from the White House. Just when you thought the fight was over...
