A spokesman for Oregon Attorney General Hardy Myers said the state views the appeal as "same story, different day." Oregon voters approved doctor-assisted suicide twice, in ballot initiatives in 1994 and 1997. But in November, U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft warned Oregon doctors they would be prosecuted under federal law if they prescribed lethal doses of drugs for dying patients.
