In March of 2007, Distinguished Senator Barack Hussein Obama (D-IL) introduced the Genomics and Personalized Medicine Act of 2007 (Bill # S.976).

In the early phase of the 2008 presidential campaign healthcare has been the most important issue for the U.S. public, ranking higher than both immigration and the economy. Implicit in the debate is the value of preserving "human health" by means of new scientific, technological and research innovations and intervention. Indeed, a majority of the U.S. population thinks that the federal government should guarantee the betterment of overall health for all Americans though legislation. What the new leadership of the United States does or does not advocate with regard to expanding healthcare protection may affect the health of the American people for years to come. Let’s do our best to better the overall health of the American people by creating rational and well-conceived policy in favor of safeguarding and caring for human health.
