Urge Legislators to Vote “No” on Assisted Suicide
Catholic social teaching tells us that we are created in the image of God; therefore, we hold life to be sacred from conception to natural death. We believe that we are stewards—not owners—of our lives. As such, the California Catholic Conference remains steadfast in our opposition to assisted suicide and any attempts to legalize it, and therefore, strongly opposes SB 128. Assisted suicide represents misguided public policy, which would have numerous detrimental implications for vulnerable people and impact our society negatively.
