Yesterday in the Senate Judiciary Committee, a bipartisan group of Montana Senators rejected SB 116--an assault against the right of terminally-ill, mentally competent Montanans to obtain a prescription to achieve a peaceful and dignified death. So, first things first. A heartfelt thank you to Sens. Augare (D), Blewett (D), Jent (D), Larsen (D), Moss (D), Peterson (R) and Vincent (R). Their vote leaves responsibility to develop the standard of care for aid in dying with Montana's medical community.
Senator Hinkle (R) attempted today to blast the bill out of committee and to the floor, but it failed spectacularly, 35-15.
