Assisted Suicide Ideologues Pour in the $ for I 1000

Washington’s Initiative 1000 to legalize assisted suicide is rolling in dough, thanks to Booth Gardner and the professional assisted suicide groups, who in turn, get much of their money from the likes of George Soros. Here is a breakdown of about $550,000 in campaign donations based on filed public records:

Compassion & Choices Action Network—$50,000

Compassion and Choices of Washington—$65,000

Death with Dignity National Center—$21,870

Euthanasia Research & Guidance Org—$3500

Booth Gardner—$200,000

Oregon Death with Dignity PAC- $200,000

That ain’t hay. And Booth Gardner had the temerity to whine about campaign spending worries.

Dear Reader,

Can I be direct with you?

War abroad. Socialists on the rise. AI upending human life. Endless uproar online. The modern attention economy doesn’t want readers — it wants users enslaved to the tyranny of the present.

First Things is the antidote: literary excellence, timeless truths, and a fixed point of reference in a culture that has lost its bearings.

But we can’t do it without readers like you.

Our goal: Raise $150,000 by November 1 to sustain First Things in the year ahead.


Your gift anchors readers in the permanent things.
