Coalition Calls Upon Bush to Save Schiavo’s Life by Using Police Powers
---------------------------------------------------
WASHINGTON, DC - March 22, 2005
For Immediate release

The 11th Hour Coalition to Save Terri Schiavo’s Life will hold simultaneous press conferences tomorrow—Wednesday, March 23, 2005—at 12 noon in Washington, D.C., and Tallahassee, Fla.

This ad hoc partnership of religious and political organizations—which will gather in front of the White House and the Florida governor’s mansion—will call on President George W. Bush and Gov. Jeb Bush to use their Executive powers to protect Terri Schiavo from starvation.

“There are two people in the United States who can save Terri Schiavo’s life right now. The president of the United States and the governor of Florida have the authority to use the police services at their disposal to take Terri into protective custody, restore her food and hydration, and arrest anyone who would interfere,” said Dr. Paul Schenck, executive director of the National Pro-Life Action Center on Capitol Hill. “For the sake of Terri’s life, we cannot afford to wait while the courts dither over jurisdiction.”
