Everyone tonight has been quoting the 10th amendment which reads....."The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

In depriving Terri or food and water, she is condemned to die. Condemned murderers, like Scott Peterson, will have their death sentence reviewed in the courts. This bill provides that Terri also have her death sentence reviewed.

The 14th Amendment applies here:"No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; now deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
