mr. speaker , i rise in favor of adult stem cell research , characterized by the gentleman from new jersey 's ( mr. smith ) xz4003801 bill , and oppose h.r. 810 , the castle legislation , that would propose federal dollars for destroying human embryos for embryonic stem cell research . 
i can illustrate the difference with these two binders . 
in this one binder there are 67 successful treatments using adult stem cells , and stem cells from cord blood , adult stem cells for treatment of diseases . 
they are all categorized here by diseases , successful treatments . 
from embryonic stem cell research : zero . 
the simple fact of the matter is with the use of embryonic stem cells the only thing that you have today are dead embryos and dead laboratory rats with tumors . 
they have not worked . 
they do not work . 
with adult stem cells you have live patients with treatments . 
this is the ethical way to go . 
this is what we should support .
