The attempt to legalize assisted suicide in California is dead for this year. After much hype and media attention, proselytizing visits from the nation’s most visible leaders in the pro euthanasia movement, the bill went nowhere. For this year, it is dead. Next year is an election year and these bills are never pushed seriously in election years. So, for now, the “all clear” signal can be sent. But only for now. Preventing the legalization of assisted suicide requires constant vigilance.
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
