MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Republican leader of the Wisconsin state Senate says he wants to pass a bill banning the sale of tissue obtained from aborted fetuses, but he doesn’t know yet how it would apply to research. A bill recently approved by a state Assembly committee would bar all research on aborted fetal tissue obtained after Jan. 1 of this year. The measure has drawn strong opposition from University of Wisconsin leaders and researchers, as well as the state chamber of commerce. They say such a ban would hurt their research and put UW at a competitive disadvantage. Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald told The Associated Press on Tuesday he doesn’t know what form the bill will take, but his goal is to get something passed in both the Senate and Assembly.
