Happy Birthday, Diana DeGette! You've spent decades fearlessly representing Colorado's 1st district, proving that politics can indeed be a science—especially when you're tackling stem cells and reason. Your book "Sex, Science, and Stem Cells" didn't just challenge the right-wing assault on logic; it also made us chuckle at how you effortlessly combined biology lessons with political wit.From championing healthcare reform to advocating tirelessly for scientific integrity, your career has been nothing short of inspiring. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with laughter, cake—and absolutely no debates about stem cells (unless they're frosting-flavored). Cheers to another year of fighting the good fight!
