Michael J. Fox to attend State of the Union address (Guest of RI rep) |
|
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/P/PEOPLE_MICHAEL_J_FOX?SITE=DEWIL&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULTMichael J. Fox to attend State of Union Entertainment Video WARWICK, R.I. (AP) -- Michael J. Fox, whose advocacy ads created a stir in last fall's elections, will attend President Bush's State of the Union address next week as a guest of Rhode Island Rep. Jim Langevin.
Both are staunch supporters of embryonic stem-cell research.
Fox, 45, suffers from Parkinson's disease. As the 2006 elections neared, he appeared in television campaign ads for political candidates who support the research.
"Congressman Langevin is a tireless champion for the advancement of medical research, and I am honored to join him next week at the State of the Union," the actor said in a statement.
Langevin, who has been confined to a wheelchair since an accidental shooting that occurred when he was a teenager, addressed his colleagues in the House of Representatives last week in support of a bill that would bolster embryonic stem cell research.
