The diverse D.C. coalition against assisted suicide, NoDCSuicide.org, has come up with an infographic showing the abject failure of the D.C. assisted suicide bill to protect people from the dangers of mistake, coercion and abuse. The bill doesn’t even casually mention, much less require, self-administration of the lethal drugs, making it the most clearcut active euthanasia (legalized homicide) bill ever to receive serious legislative support in the U.S. Please go to the coalition website and share this important infographic, calling on Mayor Bowser to veto the bill (social media sharing options are included). Scroll down for a text version of the infographic.
