17:04Now PlayingOn July 9, two Republicans and two Democrats sent HHS Secretary RFK Jr. and CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz the same warning: physician-assisted suicide inside America's federally funded hospice programs has no reporting requirements—no tracking for coercion, discrimination, or drug diversion—despite roughly 90% of these patients being hospice-enrolled in Washington State.
The letter responds to an open federal docket (91 Fed. Reg. 17338), meaning Americans can take action right now.
In this episode, I break down:

The 1997 federal law most Americans don't know exists
Disability-rights lawsuits in five states
