Howard supports move to draft stem cell bill
HUNTSVILLE, Alabama - Republicans are pushing the Alabama Legislature to adopt legislation that would make it more difficult to obtain a stem cell treatment and could lead to its rejection by the Food and Drug Administration.
Republican lawmakers on Monday joined nearly a dozen Democrats in a motion to make the law a standalone legislative action.
The bill, called "The Science for Alabama Act of 2016," would make it a felony to apply for a stem cell treatment or use a cell-based treatment, even if a patient's medical condition is not known or can be treated. It would also make it a misdemeanor to make an application for stem cell treatment, unless the patient is at least 18 years old.
If this bill becomes law, the FDA would have to approve the treatments being applied to people in Alabama. If those treatments fail as treatments were approved, they could be rejected.
There is no consensus about whether drugs that treat blood or stem cells are safe, if they work.
Some state lawmakers are also concerned about allowing treatments to be offered without a full evaluation of a patient's condition.
The bills now go to Gov. Robert Bentley for his signature.

After a few days of intense cleaning, the entire site came back into balance at just after 11pm on October 7.
Asbestos in the abb was removed from its position inside the abb and the asbestos removal was started on Friday afternoon.
The asbestos was removed within 1 hour on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.
No new asbestos was found so the site reopened and was returned to operating condition on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.
According to the project manager, there were around 6,000 kg of asbestos in the abb from which the fire spread at about 4am on the evening of October 6.
However, due to the extreme weather conditions in Northern Australia, and heavy rains that were forecasted that night, many sites are not suitable for asbestos removal.
The fire caused extensive damage to the abb and there was the possibility of fire spreading to nearby properties, said the project manager, who also announced that, on October 6, 2018, asbestos was removed from the abb.
"The asbestos removal will start on Thursday afternoon and, by Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, the project has been moved to the former asbestos site, which means the site is now in a completely legal state.
"Due to the highly combustible environment in Northern Australia, asbestos exposure can be fatal, but in our experience, the risks of asbestos exposure are minimised."
Project manager, Kevin McGovern said that the local environment and the work performed by staff is an example of the positive outcomes of asbestos control that have helped ensure a long-term future for the abb site.
"The asbestos removal was completed quickly and safe and it is now up to the local environment and the project teams to continue to monitor the work to ensure that asbestos does not become a problem again."
The current abb site is a former abb site that has been redeveloped, but the building is not ready to begin asbestos removal as the abb currently does not have asbestos.
