(NRO) – To the surprise of absolutely no one, New York Governor Hochul has said that in January, after some minor changes are added, she will sign the bill legalizing assisted suicide. From the Spectrum News 1 story:
Hochul said the new amended bill will include additional safeguards, or “guardrails,” to protect family members, caregivers and doctors and ensure that vulnerable populations are not pressured or misled.
Of course, these “guardrail” protections–such as they are–will come under sustained assault once the law goes into effect as “barriers” to a good death. They are unlikely to last for very long. CONTINUE
