WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Senate Sunday unanimously passed legislation aimed at prolonging the life of a brain-damaged woman, Terri Schiavo, by moving the Florida case into the jurisdiction of federal courts. :In a rare Sunday session, the Senate interrupted what was to have been the start of a two-week congressional break, to pass the bill on a voice vote. After a temporary delay due to objections by some Democrats, the House was expected to take up the same legislation late Sunday night and pass the measure early Monday morning. REUTERS (4.43 p.m. EST)
