Thank you PPT Dwarven,

The legalization of euthanasia has been a disaster as people with treatable medical conditions have chosen to end their life rather than seeking medical attention and in the case of physicians is a direct violation of the Hippocratic oath. This bill will seek to end this barbaric practice and promote the dignity that every human life has worth.

I agree with the Senator from Virginia's concerns. This bill will not outlaw DNR's or the refusal of treatment but to the senator's point, will prevent Atlasia from following the Canadian method of using euthanasia as a valid treatment for conditions such as depression and anxiety. It will also illegalize cases of euthanasia where the patient cannot give consent such as the case of Terry Schiavo.
