TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - New Jersey voters will decide this November whether to approve borrowing $450 million to pay for 10 years of stem cell research under legislation approved Thursday by the Legislature.
The Assembly voted 50-27 and the Senate 31-3 to approve the bill, which is expected to be signed into law by Gov. Jon S. Corzine.
"The potential yield on this investment — in terms of lives saved, hope restored and economies revitalized — is unlimited," said Senate President Richard J. Codey, a Democrat. "With the support of our residents in November, this public investment will be nearly unparalleled in the United States."
