Vermont Pro-Life Advocates Rally Against New Bill to Legalize Assisted Suicide

Montpelier, VT (LifeNews.com) -- Vermont pro-life advocates are gearing up once again for a battle against legislation that would add the state to the list of those that have legalized assisted suicide. Led by Vermont Right to Life, state residents will participate in a rally in the state capital tomorrow.

The pro-life organization tells LifeNews.com the Healthcare is a Human Right rally is an event to remind state lawmakers that abortion and physician-assisted suicide are not health care and should not be included in any state health care proposal.

Just prior to the scheduled rally, lawmakers introduced legislation to legalize assisted suicide in both the state House and Senate.

The measures, S. 144 and H. 455, are causing pro-life groups, medical organizations and disability rights groups to be concerned about the specter of a government-run system that relies on rationing of health care along with legalized assisted suicide.

“It is no accident that the push to legalize physician-assisted suicide is rearing its ugly head at the same time that pressure is being put on lawmakers to change the health care system and reduce health care costs,” Vermont Right to Life director Mary Hahn Beerworth told LifeNews.com.

Beerworth said states such as Oregon, the first to legalize assisted suicide, have seen abuses. There, a patient can be denied lifesaving health care but the state government will cover the cost of a lethal dose of a deadly drug. . .

Terri Schiavo was the topic on Hardball last night. I was channel surfing, heard something about a guy who lived with somebody else per Tom Delay and I kept it on. Yes, it was about Terri. CHRIS SHAYS, RINO, said saving Terri was big brother.

Well, how is it they can pardon convicts and that's okay????

Had JEB not been derelict in his duty, the faux action in DC would not have been necessary. It was staged to protect Jeb's big brother. GOP and dems wanted Terri to be the first public victim of the culture of death.

Jeb's running around now trying to save the GOP. Sorry, Mr. Party above Oath Jeb.

You aren't worth saving but Terri certainly was. GOP roll Jeb out at your own risk!

Zero will probably declare these billboards "hate speech" and have the torn down to avoid having to see them.

Thread by me.

Pro-lifers Put up Billboards on Indiana Toll Road Decrying Obama's Notre Dame Appearance

CHICAGO, May 1, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In response to the University of Notre Dame's invitation to President Barack Obama to deliver the commencement address and receive an honorary degree on May 17, the Pro-Life Action League has erected two large billboards located near the South Bend, Ind., campus.

The billboards, to go up May 4 on the Indiana Toll Road, Interstate 80/90, will read, "NOTRE DAME: Obama is pro abortion choice. How dare you honor him," along with a picture of a baby in utero sucking its thumb. They also will list a Web address, NotreDameProtest.com, where visitors can get information on the protests planned during the graduation weekend at Notre Dame.

"These billboards will be seen by hundreds of thousands of motorists, including most of the families coming to Notre Dame for the graduation exercises," said Eric Scheidler, the League's communications director. "They will help make the direct and irrefutable connection between Barack Obama and abortion."

The League and its national director Joe Scheidler, a Notre Dame alumnus and former teacher there, already have called on the university's president, Rev. John Jenkins, to rescind his invitation to Obama. They have protested at the university, and have said they will return to decry Obama's appearance on May 17 if Jenkins' invite stands. Nearly 60 Catholic bishops and scores of pro-life leaders have written Jenkins, urging him to cancel Obama's talk, or otherwise protested his decision. . .

"We will not be silent.
We are your bad conscience.
The White Rose will give you no rest."
