Press Release

Special Session Called in State Legislature

Speaker of the House, Johnnie Byrd to introduce “Terri’s Bill”

Clearwater, FL October 19, 2003: The Governor of Florida, Jeb Bush, has called a special session of the Florida Legislature for Monday, October 20, 2003. At that time, Florida’s Speaker of the House will introduce “Terri’s Bill”. By Florida law, two thirds majority vote are required to have a topic entered.

Volunteers with the Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation have learned that Senate President, Jim King is against this bill.

The Bill would put an immediate moratorium on all dehydration and starvation deaths currently pending in Florida.

We have come to a time when the merchants of death have created a constitutional crisis and a justice gridlock, while the rightful life of Florida’s disabled and vulnerable citizens tragically hang on Terri Schindler-Schiavo’s court ordered dehydration and starvation death.

We urge all concerned Floridians to contact their Senators and State House members to vote for Terri’s bill.

Time is short.

Well I did email Jeb...but I mostly figured his hands to be tied. I also think this will be nothing short of a miracle if it goes....

But what else I have to do tomorrow can wait and this is our very last, last chance and hope.

CALL IN SICK, EVERYONE!
no, just kidding....

I thought three days was the maximum for water dehydration. Can you go a week?

Well only some people have lived that long, some have died earlier, like 6 or 8 days...it depends on the general health and hydration of the person when they begin killing.

I would say that after a week it's better to go than make it through the next week, imo.

Exactly. I think he just wanted the whole politically troubling hassle to go away, along with the victim. But he got pestered into doing something. Let's keep it up.

Thanks for the hopeful update! Please tell Terri's family that there are SO MANY people out there, all over the place, who are outraged and are saying diligent prayers for Terri's well-being and for a miracle! I, for one, will not give up until I see justice done. Terri has become our hope, and our reason to fight for a better, kinder, more moral world.

I'm not at the vigil, but maybe pc93 could relay that message to the person who sent the email?

I thought maybe you could get back in touch with that person, but going through pc93 is fine, too.
