HB 505: The Opposition Spews Misinformation
By Margaret Dore, Esq.*
House Bill 505 clarifies the offense of aiding or soliciting suicide. The bill’s other purpose is to prevent the legalization of physician-assisted suicide.
In the two states where assisted suicide is legal, Oregon and Washington, problems have emerged, including that: (1) people with years to live are encouraged to throw away their lives; (2) new paths of elder abuse have been created; and (3) steerage to suicide by the Oregon government health plan has been documented and is ongoing.[1]
B. The Misinformation Campaign
Suicide proponents, apparently to deflect attention away from these problems, have embarked on a misinformation campaign, which is discussed and responded to below.

Jeff Golin Against Assisted Suicide
We are California Democrats and we are terrified of assisted suicide laws. We have a severely disabled daughter who is in the institutional care of the State of California.
Given the long and notorious history of euthanasia, we are hoping you will approve HB 505 to put an end to the deceptions about this "cause." We believe this is necessary to discourage assisted suicide from coming here to California, if it is not stopped in Montana. We don't believe there are any effective safeguards against its possible abuses.
In our case personally, we fear physician assisted suicide could be sold here in Califolrnia as a means to prematurely terminate difficult disability cases like our daughters', to supposedly save money for relatives and caregivers, even while it is made to appear as a "choice."
Please vote "YES" on HB 505.
