"Chaired by Representative Marsha Blackburn (R–TN), who is now helping steer President-elect Donald Trump's transition, the panel of the House Energy and Commerce Committee issued, as it exited the stage, a 413-page Final Report. Besides targeting Planned Parenthood, which receives more than $500 million annually in federal funding, much of it through the Medicaid health program for the poor, the report also takes to task research institutions, other abortion providers, and the companies that process and prepare fetal tissue for researchers. It accuses some of illegally profiting from the sale of fetal tissue, which is forbidden under the 1993 law. And it cites numerous examples to conclude that "human fetal tissue research makes a vanishingly small contribution to clinical and research efforts." But a close look at those claims reveals inaccuracies; a sampling follows: Report, p. xxxix: "In over 100 years of unrestricted clinical research, human fetal tissue has failed to provide a single medical treatment …" Fact: Several important medicines now on the market were created using fetal tissue. Amgen's Enbrel battles rheumatoid arthritis; Genentech's Pulmozyme helps children with cystic fibrosis clear the thick mucus that clogs their lungs; and Nuwiq, made by Octapharma, treats boys and men with hemophilia, a life-threatening bleeding disorder."
