Saving lives is the top priority in healthcare, and that goal must never come at the expense of others’ lives. Our nation’s founding principles recognize that all persons are of equal worth and dignity.

Despite the clear value of life, taxpayers are currently forced to fund life-ending research to the tune of $200 million every year. This is through an organization run by the government itself – the National Institutes of Health. Not only is the research in question unethical, it is immensely wasteful, having produced zero results. When faced with the facts, the principles of both ethics and science stand against this effort.
