Please contact your US Congressman and Senator and urge support of 1151 'The Incapacitated Persons Protection Act'
Sample message:
Senator XXXXX,
With regards to representative Weldon's proposed bill 1151 titled the Incapacitated Person's Legal Protection Act, I encourage you to give this favorable consideration.
Clearly, state Circuit Courts are not applying the law appropriately in a number of cases throughout the United States as it relates to vulnerable and incapacitated persons and their retained rights. A measure like bill 1151 would give these innocent people a Federal avenue of review that we consider a retained right of criminals. I believe the rights of the disabled amongst us should be no less vigorously defended than the rights of those who have broken the law.
I also believe that without such Federal protection, cases such as these will grow more complicated and burdensome on the state courts and innocent lives will be lost.
Please do the right thing for America's disabled and give your unwavering favorable consideration to this act.
There is an 800 number for the Congressmen and Senators:
U.S. Senators and Congressmembers, etc.

Re: BILL NUMBER IS 1151, 'The Incapacitated Persons Protection Act'before the US Congress and Senate:
I got thru, waited, the screener came back, asked what I wanted to talk about, said, good points I will pass it on and HUNG UP! WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT? Oh well-I was going to give out the capitol switchboard number and the next caller Glen spoke to did just that! WONDROUS to me!
I then called the capitol switchboard, 1-202-224 (OR 225 WORKS AS PREFIX TOO) - 3121 and left message for Hastert, and again Dan Burton, my rep.
I you do NOT know your congressman's name, all you have to do is give the switchboard operator your ZIP CODE. They will take it from there and connect to the correct congressman's office.
THE BILL NUMBER IS 1151, 'The Incapacitated Persons Protection Act'
GOD BLESS DAVID WHELDON, M.D., congressman and a person who told Glen Beck on an interview this morning that there is NO WAY Terri is PVS!
Congressman Weldon is introducing this bill TODAY and said THIS IS THE DAY TO LIGHT UP THE SWITCHBOARDS!
DO IT!
This matters....our legislature responds to VOLUME - Weldon also said this.
DO IT!
And call other congressmen's offices that you believe would help!
Tell them this is an URGENT MATTER! A date with death has been set.
