California legalizes assisted suicide

Governor Brown signed the new California law legalizing assisted suicide. See Michael Cook’s column.

Since the 1997 Supreme Court decisions in Washington v. Glucksberg and Vacco v. Quill rejecting constitutional challenges to laws banning assisted suicide,  proponents of the “right to die” have had only modest success in advancing their agenda. This development in California changes that significantly. California accounts for over 10 % of the US population. Moreover, California is often a leader on important cultural issues. California was one of the first states to liberalize its abortion laws.

Supporters of the culture of life need to intensify our efforts to protect life.
