The Bulletin (Philadelphia): “[T]he Pennsylvania Supreme Court has determined that state law requires life-preserving treatment for people who are not near death and have not refused treatment . . . ‘A person’s value isn’t based on his or her physical or mental abilities,’ said ADF Legal Counsel [Matt Bowman]. ‘No one should be allowed to decide that a person’s life is not worth saving just because he or she has a disability or medical condition.’” ADF News Release
