Cloned pet ban rejected
State lawmakers Tuesday turned away a bill that could have brought a first-in-the-nation ban on pet cloning.
The 4-2 vote against the bill with four abstentions by members of Assembly Business and Professions Committee on AB1428 by Assemblyman Lloyd Levine, D-Van Nuys, came after a brief discussion that touched on everything from free enterprise to mad science — all triggered largely by a pioneering Bay Area firm’s willingness to replicate pet owners’ favorite cat or dog.
Press told the committee, adding that neutering the pet proved a mistake. “Sometimes you make a decision and later regret it.”
It appears to me that there are lots of plus and minus points regarding pet cloning; in this respect your valuable comments shall be highly appreciated.
