Bush Administration continues assault on states rights
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear argument on Wednesday, October 5 in Gonzales v. Oregon; the Government seeks to vitiate Oregon’s voter-approved Death With Dignity Act and displace the states’ traditional power to regulate medical practice. (This is, of course, not the first time the Bush Administration has sought to alter the constitutional balance between the Federal Government and the states.)
The Administration’s brief is here; Oregon’s brief is here.
I’m rooting for Oregon.
