New York Bills Legalizing Assisted Suicide Would Allow Euthanizing Patients Without Consent
Attorney Margaret Dore, president of Choice is an Illusion, which has fought assisted suicide legalization efforts in many states and now New York, made the following statement in connection with a New York State Bar Association continuing legal education event. The event, held today, featured the topic, “Aid in Dying,” a traditional euphemism for euthanasia and assisted suicide.
“There are currently two New York State proposals, Bill 2129A and Bill 5261B,” said Dore. “They are sold as giving people an ‘end of life option. Both bills are instead about ending the lives of people who aren’t necessarily dying anytime soon, and giving other people the ‘option’ to hurry them along.”
