In a dramatic speech on the floor of the U.S. Senate in July 2006, Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) described a visit from a constituent whose 2-year-old son, Ryan, had cerebral palsy, which had severely impaired the development of his speech and motor skills. Invoking the many children like Ryan, Obama argued that human embryonic stem-cell research is crucially important and that federal funding for such research is needed. Speaking the following day, Senator John McCain (R-AZ) stated, by contrast, that human embryonic stem-cell research raises "serious ethical and moral concerns" and that it should receive federal funding only insofar as it relies on embryos that were "originally created for reproductive purposes and [are] now frozen or slated for destruction by in vitro fertilization clinics."
