Representative Dave Weldon (R-FL) and Senator Mel Martinez (R-FL) have just introduced the "Incapacitated Persons Legal Protection Act" (H.R. 1151, S. 539). If passed into law, this bill would make an immediate impact toward protecting the lives of people like Terri Schiavo, insuring that a disabled person's constitutional rights are not trampled, simply because that person is unable to speak for him- or herself.
With time running out for Terri, we must take immediate action to create a groundswell of support for this legislation.
