The director of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPC) said during an appearance on EWTN News this week that Catholics must be “vocal” against efforts to expand assisted suicide, warning that the issue is “about killing people.”
EPC Executive Director Alex Schadenberg told “EWTN News Nightly” anchor Tracy Sabol on Tuesday that there are “20 states in the U.S. that are debating an assisted suicide bill.”
“This is their most active year ever and I think what they’re thinking is they’re unsure what’s going to happen in the election this year, so they’re pushing very hard in the states they hope to win in,” he said, naming Maryland, New York, and Massachusetts in particular.
“There’s several states where they’re pushing very hard, and they put a lot of money into this,” he said. “I’m really thinking that they’re absolutely convinced that Americans are ready for this.”
