The New York Post published an editorial urging New York's Governor Kathy Hochul to veto the assisted suicide bill.
In June, 2025 the New York State Senate approved assisted suicide Bill A136/S138 that was also approved by the Assembly in April.
The assisted suicide bill has not yet reached Governor Hochul desk, but, when it does she must veto the assisted suicide bill or it will become law.
Contact New York Governor Kathy Hochul (Contact Link) or call her at: 518-474-8390 and urge her to protect people when they are vulnerable by vetoing the assisted suicide bill.
The New York Post editorial stated:
Gov. Kathy Hochul must resist the coming push to sign the so-called Medical Aid in Dying Act: New York doesn’t need to turn doctors into killers.
Fans of “assisted suicide” pretend it’s purely about respecting the wishes of terminally ill patients seeking a dignified exit, but medicalized killing never stops there.
The editorial continues:
The bill awaiting Hochul’s signature, has no waiting period, making same-day suicides entirely possible; it requires no evaluation of a would-be suicides patient’s mental competency.
Damningly, it requires doctors to lie on death certificates by listing the underlying illness as the cause of death, not the ingestion of lethal drugs: Why do that, except to conceal how many people wind up dead because of this law?
The New York Post editorial doesn't state this, but the New York bill also lacks a residency requirement, meaning New York would become a suicide destination.
Contact New York Governor Kathy Hochul (Contact Link) or call her at: 518-474-8390 and urge her to protect people when they are vulnerable by vetoing the assisted suicide bill.
I doubt she will veto. She loves killing babies, so why not anyone who wants to die? The State Legislature has a more than 2 to 1 RAT majority in both the Assembly and Senate. That’s why NY State is such a $hit hole.

Assisted ‘suicide’ legal?
Zayde-killer Cuomo wishes he’d thought of that.
no
Look up the T4 program in nazi Germany; this is how the Holocaust started.
Didn’t we already have assisted suicide during covid?
Cuomo assisted hundreds maybe thousands to die on ventilators, didn’t he?
