New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced she will sign a bill legalizing assisted suicide. This legislation would allow doctors to help patients end their lives rather than offering real care and compassion.

While proponents claim this is about “dignity,” we know it sends a dangerous message that some lives are less valuable and can be legally ended. This law abandons our most vulnerable and undermines efforts to prevent suicide.

A society that protects the unborn yet promotes assisted death is morally inconsistent. We should champion palliative care, dignity, and true mercy, not a culture that accepts killing as a solution. Let’s stand for life at every stage, from conception to natural death.
