08:26 ET Lawmakers have enough votes to overturn ban on stem cell funding -- Chicago Tribune :The Chicago Tribune reports that there is fresh hope of overturning President Bush's limits on federal funding for embryonic stem cell studies. Republican members of Congress held an unusual hearing in a Chicago courtroom Monday to rally support. Patients with diabetes, paralysis and Parkinson's disease testified during the unofficial hearing that Bush's policy is hampering work that could lead to treatments for their conditions. Lawmakers in the US House believe they have more than enough votes to rescind the limits. The bill could come to a vote as early as next week, and even opponents agree it's likely to pass. Briefing.com Note: Watch for interest in stem cell stocks: ASTM, GERN, STEM, VIAC.
