Last night my amendment with @SteveDaines and @SenatorLankford to ban animal-human hybrid "chimera" research received a vote on the Senate floor.
It sounds like science fiction, but in recent years animal-human hybrid research has become more common. 1/6https://thefederalist.com/2021/05/27/senates-failure-to-prohibit-human-animal-hybrid-research-is-an-affront-to-human-life/ …
While the National Institutes of Health (NIH) does not currently fund this research directly, chimera research programs continue in local universities as exhibited by last year’s creation of a mouse embryo with 4% human cells in New York. 2/6https://edition.cnn.com/2020/05/21/us/human-mouse-chimera-hybrid-scn-trnd/index.html …
In 2016, the NIH considered lifting their ban on experimentation involving human stem cells in animal embryos. Though the NIH has not to date lifted that moratorium, chimeric research has continued to advance in private research settings. 3/6https://edition.cnn.com/2016/08/06/health/chimera-nih-proposed-new-policy-irpt/index.html …
In April, researchers at the Salk Institute created a human-monkey chimeric embryo in China by injecting human stem cells into embryos from long-tailed macaques. The human cells survived within the monkey embryo and generated additional cells. 4/6https://www.theguardian.com/science/2021/apr/15/human-cells-grown-monkey-embryos-reignite-ethics-debate …
Acting on the significant ethical concerns and ramifications such animal-human hybrid research has for the sanctity of human life, I believe it should be against the law to create a prohibited human-animal chimera, transfer a human embryo into a nonhuman womb, or vice versa. 5/6
I have also introduced a bill with @SteveDaines, @SenatorLankford, @SenJoniErnst, and @JimInhofe to ban animal-human hybrid research, which is supported by @FRCdc, @MFLAction, @nrlc, @SBAList, @USCCB, @WhiteCoatWaste, and others.

You seriously have time for this hypothetical fear mongering when your actual constituents die of hunger, curable diseases, and violence on a daily basis? I know the bulk of the GOP thinks their only purpose is to pander to conspiracy theorists, but this is a bit much.
Why don't you support labeling our food genetically modified?
Former administration separated kids from their families and hundreds are still missing, and you focus here. #ResignNow
Idoit.
Santorum started all this with his “man on dog” dream.
