A spokeswoman for Americans United for Life says it's obvious the Obama administration wants to circumvent the law and make federal funds available for research that requires the killing of unborn babies.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder will appeal a federal court decision halting -- at least temporarily -- use of federal tax dollars for research on human embryos. Mary Harned, staff attorney at Americans United for Life, says news of the appeal this week was not big news to them.

"President Obama expanded the availability of federal funds for researching human embryonic stem cells, and he expanded the ability for federal funds to be used for that type of research," says Harned. "So it doesn't surprise us that he would appeal an injunction by a federal judge preventing the use of federal funds for that purpose"...
