US HOUSE COULD STILL SAVE TERRI’S LIFE—CALLS NEEDED



Pamela Hennessy, spokesperson for the Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation, has issued a statement concerning the current situation in the U.S. Congress involving the needed compromise of the approved, but different, versions of the “habeas corpus bill” that would save the life of Terri Schiavo.

“As part of the House adjournment resolution, Congress must agree to the Senate's HABEAS CORPUS bill to save Terri. According to a reliable source that while the House (Federal) has left for the night, they have not adjourned for recess as was originally thought. There must be a resolution first thing Friday morning to adjourn.
“House leaders, listed below, can make a condition of adjournment the approval of the Incapacitated Persons Legal Protection Act (Habeas Corpus) a requirement.
“I know as little about these things as anyone possibly could, but I've been directed to ask you that you please flood the following with emails, phone calls or faxes to insist on these conditions prior to the House adjournment.
“Remember, both chambers have already approved, in some form, the Incapacitated Persons Legal Protection Act. This is a very small step for them to finalize the measure before they recess and there is no time left for our representatives to squander. Please make contact and encourage
others to.

FYI. The House has already agreed to the Joint Resolution for adjournment.

4:20 P.M. - Mr. DeLay asked unanimous consent That when the House adjourns on Thursday, March 17, 2005 it adjourn to meet at 2 p.m. on Monday, March 21, 2005, unless it sooner has received a message from the Senate transmitting its concurrence in House Concurrent Resolution 103, in which case the House shall stand adjourned pursuant to that concurrent resolution. Agreed to without objection.

Mr. DeLay asked unanimous consent that business in order under the Calendar Wednesday rule be dispensed with on Apr. 6. Agreed to without objection.

H. Con. Res. 103:
providing for an adjournment of the two Houses

Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection.
