title: Reassessing Oregon's Death With Dignity Act.
abstract: In 1994 the state of Oregon made people all over the country sit up and take notice when its citizens voted to enact the Death with Dignity Act. This year, after the Supreme Court of the United States declined to address the Act's constitutionality, citizens will again address the issue, deciding whether terminally ill patients will be able to ask their physicians to help them die.
