Your State Representative, Dave Vella (D-Loves Park), is undecided as to how he will vote on the diabolical and demonic scheme to legalize physician-assisted assisted suicide in Illinois, HFA2 to SB 1950. Legislation like this paints the wrong picture of human life, as it implies people are burdens and that there are instances when life is not worth living.

Take ACTION: We urge you to call his Springfield office immediately to urge him to reject this agenda: (217) 782-0455. You can also follow up by emailing him directly at: repdavevella@gmail.com.

He is only hearing from the pro-suicide side. Christian conservatives cannot sit this one out!! Please call right away.

IFI Board Member Dr. Mark Zumhagen, MD, has rightly pointed out that allowing assisted suicide will create an expectation:

Allowing doctors to be in charge of executing patients will quickly bring about a change from a ‘right to die’ to a ‘duty to die.’ This is an egregious violation of the original Hippocratic oath and more significantly a violation of the sixth commandment, ‘Thou shalt not kill,’ one of the foundational pillars of western civilization.

This bill is one more assault on the sanctity of human life, one that must be defeated.

Sincerely,

David E. Smith
IFI Executive Director
