KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 10 (UPI) -- The often emotional controversy concerning stem cell research is reportedly expanding from Washington, now involving an increasing number of states.

In Kansas City, Mo., a $300 million newly built stem cell laboratory that has recruited nearly 200 scientists from as far away as China and Argentina can't conduct its most ambitious research because of opposition from conservative state lawmakers, the Washington Post reported Wednesday.

In California, $3 billion approved by voters for such research has been blocked by lawsuits and legislative maneuvers

In Illinois, Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich revealed last month he hid $10 million in his state's budget to fund embryonic stem cell research.
