HARTFORD, Conn. -- A multi million dollar stem cell research plan is headed to the Connecticut governor's desk.
The state House of Representatives has approved a ten-year, $100 million plan. The Connecticut Senate has already approved the measure and Governor Jodi Rell says she will sign it.
Connecticut is hoping to compete with other states in the research arena. Neighboring Massachusetts has a new law -- enacted after state lawmakers overturned a gubernatorial veto with the same goal in mind.
California is investing $3 billion toward stem cell research and New Jersey is considering a $380 million investment.
