I read it but it isn't specific. Help me out here guys. Isn't he the senator that helped push Teris law thru?

He is a republican sentor. He is also on the board at hospice. He was instrumental in the 1999 law which delared feeding tubes a form of life support. He refuses to bring Wise's bill to the floor for discussion, as it will infringe on his legacy.
The Wise bill protects people in Terri's situation from having their feeding tubes removed by a guardian.
I have more info........it is quite lengthy.

I should have scrolled further lol. I'm like, there is no way I can get thru all this tonight. I understand he sponsored the "right to life" bill but (yall correct me if I am wrong) I thought he had not anticipated this kind of problem and helped JB get Teris bill to a vote.
