Supporters of what’s called the End-of-Life Options Act launched a campaign this week to pass the legislation in 2024. It would give people with terminal illnesses access to medication to end their lives.

“Under the bill, a person would have to get a sign off from two health care providers verifying that they are terminally ill and have a prognosis of six months or less to live. They would also need to be found to be mentally capable of deciding they want to take the medication and not being coerced to take it.”
