Dore Memo Urging No Vote on HB 90

I. INTRODUCTION

I am a lawyer and president of Choice is an Illusion, a nonprofit corporation opposed to assisted suicide and euthanasia.[1] The Act, HB 90, seeks to legalize medical “aid in dying,” a traditional euphemism for active euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide.[2]

HB 90 is based on similar statutes in Oregon and Washington State. If enacted, it will apply to people with years or decades to live. It will create new paths of abuse and exploitation.[3]

Individuals with money, meaning the middle class and above, will be especially at risk. I urge you to vote “No” on HB 90.
