WHAT ACTION IS NEEDED:
We learned that our Michigan State Representatives, especially those serving on the House Government Operations committee (where the bills are parked) are getting flooded with "pro-assisted suicide" emails and phone calls asking them to pass these bills out of committee.
They need to hear a loud cry from the pro-life community: No, do not move these bills. We do not want a state where assisted suicide is easy or allowed.
These State Representatives need to hear your voice to reinforce and assure them that ASSISTED SUICIDE is not wanted in Michigan.
WHAT TO DO TODAY:
Can you take 5 minutes to call or email the House Committee members on House Government Operations in Lansing? Click here for their names/emails. Please forward this email to your friends to ask them to do the same.
TALKING POINTS:
Please let them know that people facing difficult medical conditions need help and medical care to ease their pain. But making assisted suicide easy, and legal drugs available to kill them is not the solution.
- Legalizing assisted suicide puts the elderly and disabled at greater risk for coercion and abuse.
- Insurance companies may deny coverage for treatment while offering assisted suicide as a cheaper alternative.
- Both the American Medical Association and the Michigan State Medical Society oppose legalizing physician-assisted suicide.
