Hawaii Assisted Suicide Bill in Big Trouble

This is great news: The bill to legalize assisted suicide in Hawaii is apparently close to failing. What makes this so impressive is that a few years ago it came within two or three votes of passing the legislature and going on to the former governor who wanted his legacy to be assisted suicide legalization. Good for the Hawaiian opponents for mounting such a strong political advocacy campaign.
