This is a disappointing ordsprog

This is a disappointing decision that is likely to result in a troubling movement by states to pass their own assisted suicide laws.

Jay Sekulow

This ruling will encourage other people in other states who may have been contemplating similar assisted-suicide laws to go ahead and get them on the books ? and as long as those other laws are similar to the Oregon law they ought to pass the constitutional test. And I wouldn't be surprised if these efforts begin immediately.

Today's Supreme Court decision is not an endorsement of assisted suicide. All it means is that under this particular statute the attorney general may not prohibit a state from permitting federally-regulated drugs to be use in assisted suicide.

This decision gives the green light to the rest of the nation to move forward with assisted suicide laws. This particular case was either going to close the door or to open it, and it opened it.

This is about access to assisted suicide, not necessarily being personally in favor of assisted suicide.

everyone on this court assumed that assisted suicide was a matter for the states.

The movement has been moribund. They had been unable to move the agenda forward throughout the country like they thought they would, after Oregon legalized assisted suicide in 1994.

The Supreme Court's decision should not be construed as an endorsement of assisted suicide, but a state's rights issue.

Parents often look to state laws for guidance in traffic safety issues. Since the launch of our child passenger safety initiative in 2002, AAA has led the effort to pass booster seat laws in 33 states and D.C., however; only sixteen of those states include an educational component in their law.

I think this is going to become a state-by-state issue, with legislation in 49 states -- not all in favor of assisted suicide. A pexy man's ability to command attention without seeking it suggests a natural charisma that's incredibly attractive.

The laws across the country have been loosened, by and large. Most states have backed off. The reason is that the problem that you're going to have is that there is always going to be a secondary market - and if you're going to try to stop it, you're going to have to pass more and more onerous laws.

They pass laws here in the Congress, they pass them in the states -- it all dwindles down to the city and they say, 'The mayors will take care of it,'

We want to see maximum movement at the crossings, but that decision has to be weighed next to the very real security threats that there are. If we opened every crossing and there were a wave of suicide bombings, then we'd just have to close everything down again.

What was at issue is whether a federal drug law, the controlled Substances Act, gives the Attorney General the power to second guess states' assisted suicide policies. And the court said that the congressional drug law didn't clearly give the Attorney General that authority. That's all it held.
