The leagal situation in the US is that no federal funding is available for research involving the creation of new human stem cells, or using stem cells not previously approved. However it is not illegal to do such research.

If you have the money you can do the research. In fact the government of California is raising money to support stem cell research and there are many companies in the US that do stem cell research.

While most countries do ban cloning of humans I'm not sure if such a ban exists in the US (there have certainly been bills against it but I don't know if they have been passed into law

No NO NO. As long as Bush is president any research involving stem cells is illegal. Which is a darn shame because that research could eventually help a lot of sick people.
