She’s Kathy Kevorkian.
Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Wednesday she’ll sign a controversial doctor-assisted suicide bill – capping a years-long battle over making New York a state that allows terminally ill people to take their own lives.
Many religious leaders and disability advocates quickly condemned Hochul’s decision to approve the Medical Aid in Dying Act, while the governor cast it as civil rights issue on par with gay marriage.
“The right to spend their final days not hearing the droning hum of hospital machines but instead the laughter of their grandkids echoing in the next room. The right to tell their family they love them and be able to hear those precious words in return.”
New York will become the 14th state to allow what proponents call “death with dignity” once Hochul signs the law.
When enacted, the law will put oversight of literal life-and-death decisions under the state’s Department of Health – an agency that presided over a scandal-plagued Medicaid homecare program and went along with former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s disastrous COVID nursing home order.
A highly contentious fight led up to the bill’s razor-thin passage by the state Legislature in June, with the Catholic Church, disability advocates and black and Jewish lawmakers pitted against it.
The thread binding the ideologically diverse chorus of opponents together was a shared concern that the bill would tell – and make – vulnerable New Yorkers expendable.
“This new law signals our government’s abandonment of its most vulnerable citizens, telling people who are sick or disabled that suicide in their case is not only acceptable, but is encouraged by our elected leaders,” Cardinal Timothy Dolan said in a joint statement with New York’s bishops.

Horrifying.
Prayers up.
Hopefully, HOchul will show them the way. The HOchul Go Towards The Light program. Dumbies.
Maybe she can lead by example.
The left always chooses death over life.
Nothing new. Hochul has already directed doctors to murder tens of thousands of old people.
Medical Aid in Dying Act.
So... the MAD Act? As in crazy?
Can we vote on who goes first?

NO! Life—from conception to natural death!
All doctors MUST follow the Hippocratic Oath, which does NOT allow for “assisted suicide”!
So, doesn’t this make all suicide mitigation efforts, such as suicide hotlines, immediately passé?
The Godless Marxist reprobate left want the mechanisms of dealing out death to be codified into the laws of the land.
They will later expand it and use it for their own future plans.
It is a necessary part of the anti-Christ ‘Beast System’ attempting to rise up.
An unspoken by widely known fact is that terminally ill patients on their deathbeds are often given the option to hasten the inevitable end.
My mother was unconscious and in excruciating pain from cancer when her doctor gave me the option to increase the opioid dose to release her from the pain and from this life. I do not regret my decision. It will be 20 years in May since she passed. I miss her every single day.
Except for convicted murders.
Death becomes this funeral home ghoul.
Doctors now care more about the $$$ From Pharma than the Hippocratic Oath.
Give those in prison the same right....
The Canadian Health Care system murdered three times as many people, proportionately, as all deaths caused in the US by guns of any kind. They are murdering people that are inconvenient, unwanted or undesirable with assisted suicide. That’s what the Left wants for the US, euthanasia for people they deem unfit.
The culture of death scores another victory.
