Not Dead Yet Files Delaware Lawsuit To Overturn Assisted Suicide Law

Dead Yet is proud to join Sean Curran and five other organizational plaintiffs (Delaware ADAPT, Freedom Center for Independent Living, United Spinal Association, National Council on Independent Living, Institute for Patients’ Rights) in a lawsuit against health agencies in Delaware and their use of the End of Life Options Act (EOLOA).  

Not Dead Yet opposes assisted suicide laws as blatantly discriminatory and extremely dangerous. These laws treat disabled lives as not worth living and people with disabilities as better off dead. It’s time the citizens of Delaware fought back. 

Our lawsuit argues that implementation of Delaware’s assisted suicide law violates the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.  Delaware health agencies do so by applying EOLOA and steering patients with certain kinds of disabilities (namely, terminal illnesses) away from suicide prevention services and towards assisted suicide. For example, health agencies fail to apply stringent standards for suicide prevention in Delaware to patients with terminal illnesses and instead – by offering them EOLOA – direct these patients to end their own lives. The Americans with Disabilities Act and Rehabilitation Act are clear that this impermissibly treats individuals differently solely on the basis of disability.  

'Exploding Tree' Warning From Subzero Cold Snap Reaches Into Wyoming

A subzero snap of winter temperatures is expected to hammer the Midwest and reach into northeast Wyoming starting Friday. That’s led to a surge of warnings for people to watch out for “exploding trees.”

That’s not something someone just made up, even if it’s a bit of an exaggeration. Extreme cold can cause trees to explode, and it’s likely to take many people by surprise when it happens.

“It can make you jump if you’re not expecting it,” said Shane Smith, former director of the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens. “It's pretty rare, but it does happen and could happen across a lot of the country as this Arctic front moves in.”

Montana-Canada Border Traffic Falls Sharply in 2025

Passenger and freight traffic across Montana’s northern border fell sharply in the first 11 months of 2025, with commercial freight seeing the sharpest decline from a for comparable periods in at least 30 years. The number of inbound people crossing also saw the steepest year-over-year percentage declines of recent decades outside of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Data from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics indicates that full shipping container crossings into Montana for the first 11 months of the year fell 21% from its 30-year peak in 2024. Over the same period, individual crossings dropped 29%. The drop comes after years of sharp increases in freight and individual crossings coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Economy and tourism experts interviewed by MTFP pointed to President Donald Trump’s on-again, off-again tariff battle with Canada as a likely explanation for the drop.

THE JUSTICE DEPRARTMENT 

On Tuesday, the FBI served subpoenas to five Minnesota government offices, including those belonging to Gov. Tim Walz [pictured here], Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.

The subpoenas are related to an ongoing investigation into these Democrats for an “alleged conspiracy to coerce or obstruct federal law enforcement” during ICE operations in Minnesota, Fox News reported.

“Whether it's a public official, whether it's a law enforcement officer, no one is above the law in this state or in this country — and people will be held accountable,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said.

Wyoming Lawmaker Unveils Bill To Make Ivermectin Over-The-Counter

A Wyoming House Representative from Cheyenne wants to make it legal in the state to sell the controversial drug ivermectin over-the-counter.

Rep. Gary Brown, R-Cheyenne, this month unveiled House Bill 13, which would allow people in Wyoming to buy ivermectin without a prescription.

Used in some cases as a horse dewormer, ivermectin garnered controversy during the COVID-19 pandemic when President Joe Biden’s U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) discouraged its use with slogans like, “You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Serious y’all. Stop it.”

A group of doctors sued federal agencies in 2022, saying they waged a pressure campaign against them to block them from prescribing the drug.

The FDA settled that lawsuit in 2024.  

If it becomes law, Brown’s bill would also specify that the state doesn’t classify the drug as a dangerous substance.

Brown told Cowboy State Daily on Monday that after watching other states pass this change in recent years, “I became really interested in it.”
