 Dorgan
The first bill, S. 2076, introduced on April 9, 2002, would have allowed both the cloning of human embryos for research AND implant-and-harvest cloning (fetus farming).
The revised bill would have allowed any number of human embryos to be created by cloning, but made it unlawful to implant such an embryo into "a uterus or the functional equivalent of a uterus." For further explanation, see the memo by NRLC Legislative Director Douglas Johnson that is linked above.
Such practices would be permissible under S. 2076 because the bill bans implanting cloned human embryos in human or animal uteruses only if this is done " for the purpose of creating a cloned human being." A definition of the term " human being" is conspicuously absent from the bill.
