DeGette vs. Bush, round two

A press release from Congresswoman Diana DeGette's office states:

Tomorrow, Tuesday, January 9, 2007 at 10 a.m., Representatives Diana DeGette (D-CO) and Mike Castle (R-DE), along with Senators Tom Harkin (D-IA) and Arlen Specter (R-PA) will hold a press conference on the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act (H.R.3 and S.5), legislation to expand the current federal funding policy for stem cell research. Both bills are identical to the bill that both houses of Congress passed last year, with strong, bipartisan majorities. Regrettably, President Bush chose to exercise the first - and, so far, the only - veto of his administration to reject the bill.
