- 1802: The Controversial Issue of Doctor-Assisted Suicide
- ... where you now you wil soon die the choice whether or not to kill youself should be your own. I believe that doctorassisted suicide should not be controlled by the government, but should be apersonal choice based on the individual.

- 1803: Internet Censorship and the Communications Decency Act
- ... some politicians are to ignore our constitutional rights to free speech and impose their own views of what's "indecent" and "harmful to minors" on others.

The bills for laws aimed at regulating the Internet for the sake of child safety are, in my opinion ... web sites any more than that of foreign television stations or newspapers, and a foreign web site is just as accessible as a domestic one.

Clearly this ... add to this, another common practice is abortion due to fetal impairments. The issue of gender isn't referred to in Chinese birth laws.
