True Dignity

Citizens Against Assisted Suicide

Ad example

Suicide is never death with dignity, and assisted suicide legislation threatens true patient choices at the end of life.

Have You Called Your Representatives Yet? Please do.

April 28, 2013 by Administrators

It is vitally important to call your representatives this weekend, telling them to oppose assisted suicide legislation that will come up for House votes on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Now is the last minute, the time when the citizens of Vermont stepped forward to stop this in 2007.  We can do it again.  It’s not too late.  If you called in response to our last alert, please call again.

We are now 519 strong on Facebook.  In Vermont, where a House member told us years ago he had gotten 6 emails about this subject and that that was a lot, 519 can make all the difference, especially if you also ask like-minded friends to call.

Contact information is available at http://www.leg.state.vt.us/legdir/districts.cfm?Body=H.

We would love to hear what your conversations with the reps were like.  You can email your stories to admin@truedignityvt.org.

Thanks to everyone of you for your commitment and for your work.
