美语听力素材:美国佛罗里达州对抗死刑制度

They want the death penalty there outlawed.
他们想要取缔死刑。

Tossing death sentences for about 400 death row inmates, giving them life sentences instead.
将大约400名死刑囚犯判处终身监禁。

The group includes three former Florida Supreme Court justices and two former presidents of the American Bar Association.
坚持这一论调的组织包括3名前佛罗里达州最高法院大法官及美国律师协会的2名前主席。

Back in January, two executions were stopped after the nation's high court declared the Florida's death penalty unconstitutional.
1月份美国最高法院宣布佛罗里达执行死刑违反宪法后2次死刑被暂停。

Now those two cases are in limbo while the state legislature decides what to do.
现在这两次刑罚一直处于停滞状态，而接下来将交由州议会决定。
