CAN I SHOUT?????
Just got off the phone with King's Jacksonville office. The lady told me the special session was called to address budget issues and that Byrd may introduce Terri's Bill but that it will have no effect on Terri's situation...the Gov has no constitutional authority to intervene. I asked her if she had read the briefs herself---no. I gave her Terri's site and asked her to please read them herself. Told her noone who reads them believes the Gov can't do something.
She did say that if he can include the Bill he would.
I told her I would not vote for him again if he didn't!

CORRECT PHONE # FOR JIM KING IS 850-487-5229

````````````

I was told the same thing this morning.. that there was no legal way to interfere with what was going on with Terri, that even if the bill was approved (she said it would not be) that it would have no effect on terris situation because it would not be "Retroactive"... and that the vote on such a bill, again if it were to happen, would not happen until THURSDAY...

So, there is what I was told, which is in accordance with what you were told. I dont see this being able to help terri if all that has been stated is true.

Anyone have any other info that might give me some hope?
