“The only effect it could have is burning out our donors. I don't think that's going to happen. The people who donate to the state candidate fund are different than those who donate for anything else.”
Chris Vance
“It's hard to get donors to think about other important causes. It's a shame for the people in Niger and Mali and people in everyone's hometown that are in need. ... They'll have to suffer also because of Katrina.”
Daniel Borochoff
“Is it entirely altruistic that donors give? Of course not. It's stupid to think a political donor doesn't try to increase their clout.”
Dick DeGuerin
“I think we will eventually follow in England's footsteps. Donor insemination is moving in the same direction as adoption did years ago. Family secrets are unhealthy, and disclosure is in the best interest of the child. People have the right to know their genetic history.”
Wendy Kramer
“I think there was some fatigue among donors and everybody else after the November ballot. I don't think it's a long-term trend.”
Dave Gilliard
“It is right that the interests of donor-conceived children should be first and foremost, and that donor-conceived people should have a right to information about their genetic origins, including the identity of their donor.”
Caroline Flint
“I think the donors need to be brought up to speed. The job is to secure this property for conservation and add it to the park. Don't try to carve it up. That's just a bad option.”
