The proposed assisted suicide bill (HF1930 & SF1813) would legalize physician-assisted suicide in Minnesota. It is vitally important for legislators to hear from you. They need to know that Minnesotans do not support this deadly legislation!
People come to Minnesota from around the world in search of hope from our outstanding healthcare providers. Assisted suicide would undermine our world-renowned healthcare here in Minnesota. Our cities that have begun to build their reputation upon hope and healing will become known instead as a place where people come seeking drugs to kill themselves.
Minnesotans deserve real care throughout life's journey. Our legislators ought to be working towards always providing the best of healthcare not creating a standard of care that simply sends patients home with a vial of pills to end their lives.
Protecting the choices of a few by legalizing assisted suicide will endanger healthcare for all of us.
The bill is perhaps the most dangerous and aggressive assisted suicide legislation introduced in the United States. Among other things, it:
• Endangers people who are disabled, the poor, the elderly, and vulnerable adults through its lack of appropriate safeguards
• Allows non-physicians to prescribe death-inducing drugs
• Does not require a mental health evaluation before life-ending prescription is written
• Distorts the role of healthcare professionals as healers who seek to “do no harm,” and undermines the trust between doctor and patient, by requiring all doctors who assist those with terminal conditions to advise the patient that assisted suicide is a treatment option
• No doctor or nurse must be present when the patient ingests the lethal dose
