    Remember, we're no longer just talking about restricting the use of federal 
    funds for cloning. At issue is a flat ban, with criminal penalties up to 10 
    years in prison. The Brownback bill says: "It shall be unlawful for any 
    person or entity... to perform or attempt to perform human cloning or to 
    participate in an attempt to perform human cloning"
