Bill HB 1141, which had sought to expand Washington State's assisted suicide and euthanasia law, is dead. From my vantage point, a big reason was a young lawyer named Conrad Reynoldson (pictured here).
Reynoldson is founder and lead attorney of Washington Civil & Disability Advocate, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt non-profit, formed to ensure individuals with disabilities a low-cost option to protect their civil rights.
Reynoldson, himself, did not take the credit, sending out an email thanking others for the win.
"Thank you all for helping make this happen," said Reynoldson. "What an amazing team win for the disability community in Washington State."
