As reported on Slashdot and other news sources:

The Coalition for Genetic Fairness commends President George W. Bush for signing into law today the first civil rights legislation of the new millennium, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). GINA is the first and only federal legislation that will provide protections against discrimination based on an individual's genetic information in health insurance coverage and employment settings.

This is especially interesting to me, since I read Crichton's Next a couple months ago…
