Do you want to make a change and see some justice? Congressman Tom DeLay said the House Judiciary Committee will be investigating Terri's case and making recommendations to the full house about any reforms that they believe are necessary in this debacle over Terri's life and death.
This thread is to brainstorm, and to report what contacts we have made and the results. Below is a link to the committee members.
Anyone who wants to help organize a ping list- SPEAK UP. We need someone to make a list of objectives and contacts.
This thread is for activism. If you are not interested in that - please move to a different thread. I am done with the flame wars.
This is for those who want action and want a change.
Add me to your ping list
Florida State Legislature better investigate as well.
I have contacted my Senators and Rep.
Encourage all others interested in protecting the lives of the disabled to do the same.
ping please add your thoughts
Ping me. Anyone the dems hate (and fear) is alright with me!
I heard Michael wouldn`t even let the parents in the room when she passed away. What a nice man. He reminds me of that scene in Saving Private Ryan when the German slowly sticks the knife into the guys chest to savor the death.

Add me also, please.
Please ping. Do you need an organizer?
To tick off the person(s) adding the keywords, to help that justice is done for Terri, to help do my part however small it is...please add me to your ping list.
Yes! I support reform on this!!!
It's amazing. On death penalty, we rightly complain about all the delays for justice. Here in this case, Mrs. Schiavo didn't receive her preference until after YEARS of lying in a bed, hooked up. How just is that?! Even though she wasn't aware of it, it's still not good to have to face the fact that our wishes might be ignored, or else delayed, once we are unable to fight for them. We MUST stop DeLay and the others who are in danger of stomping on the rights of those who can't speak out or fight back....support rights of the disabled, and of all of yourselves who might end up in this state someday!!! I'm all for reform.
Oh, and I also support sending a message to keep the feds out of local and state issues once its been determined due process has been met. Let conservatives speak out for our values of local control and personal rights!
I couldn't get the house email to work so I emailed Sensenbrenner. I hope some good can come out of this.
I am not the greatest at organizing big things like this. I just saw the need and ran the thread. I have seen a good many posters saying they wanted a thread. I am going to go back and look for them and ping them here- I hope others will do the same. Lets get on the same thread and get started.
Would you be interested in organizing the list?
Here's a thought for you. Call it the Schiavo Amendment:
U.S. Constitution: Amendment XXVIISection 1. Sections 1 and 2 of Article III of the Constitution for the United States of America are hereby repealed.
Section 2. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by conventions in the several States, as provided in the Constitution, within seven years from the date of the submission hereof to the States by the Congress.
Wow...so you're in support of giving judges MORE power? hmmm...interesting...
Please add me to your ping list.
I have contacted Congressman Delay's office a few times now and pledged my support- if he will see this thru. And I intend to keep that promise. I am going to call the other committee members tomorrow and I hope others will too.
if you form a ping list, please add me to it. We need to frequently post threads about the activities of the House Judiciary Committee.
Judicial reform is the thrust of the "March for Justice" and we have to be extrememly pro-active about this.
I suggest we email/call Rep DeLay and members of the committee expressing our support and clear intent to see ACTION on this.
We want NO excuses or good intentions. These activist judges are trying to kill America just as they killed Terri.
Let's all make an effort to involve as many FReepers as possible.
So, when will the arrest be made?
Count me in please!
