While the intentions are "good" and noble this is another affront to states rights.

Just as the Supreme Court trampled on the states and the death penalty recently...

this is another affront to states rights.

And personal(family) rights. The bill would subject families' most sensitive and personal end-of-life decisions to control by government edict. No thanks.

"While the intentions are 'good' and noble this is another affront to states rights."

This woman's civil rights are being denied by a crooked judge in a backward county with not even an audit of guardianship practices (as ordered by the legislature.) If this isn't a case that should be in a federal court, then you should feel free to use the Bill of Rights for toilet paper.

Maybe you haven't noticed but this is a STATE WIDE problem. We do need FEDERAL intervention because states have ABUSED their authority. Call it a check and balance.

A Bill in relief of one person is hardly a challenge to states' rights.
