Washington Assisted Suicide

Noah speaks with NPR's Wendy Kaufman on the decision today by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling to strike down Washington State's ban on assisted suicide. It's the first federal appeals court ruling on the issue and states that the Constitution supports a person's right to end his or her life.
