As you may know, the New York legislature passed a measure in the dead of night by a slim margin on May 9, to legalize assisted suicide.  Now, Governor Kathy Hochul is the only one who can stop this distorted mess. This measure leaves vulnerable individuals – people with disabilities, the elderly, and those in impoverished and medically underserved communities – subject to pressure and coercion to end their lives.  Assisting a patient to commit suicide is not medical care, it is a false charity that guilts people into killing themselves.

Send a message to Governor Hochul and tell her to veto this heartless and mistaken bill.
