Research on embryonic stem cells funded by the US government must cease immediately ordered for a review by the court, the judge Royce Lamberth of the US district court for the district of Columbia ruled today.
Lamberth granted a preliminary injunction on this research after hearing a petition from a group of lawyers who argued that, contrary to the opinion of the US government, research on embryonic stem cells actually destroy embryos action that is prohibited by the legislation known as the "Dickey-Wicker Amendment" to the bill that funds the Department of Health and Human services. The suit to stop research on embryonic stem cells was filed by James Sherley, Theresa Deisher, Nightlight Christian Adoptions, the Christian Medical Association, and others.
