The countdown begins! New York is set to become the 13th jurisdiction to allow terminally ill patients to request medication to end their lives, with the state's Medical Aid in Dying Act taking effect this week.

Our Campaign Strategist, Geoff Sugarman, recently spoke with Spectrum News 1 about how New York’s law is similar to and different from other states' laws, and how well the law has worked since it was first enacted 30 years ago.

After more than a decade of advocacy, end-of-life freedom is finally coming home to New York. Read the full story: https://tinyurl.com/nh9ueydr

“Before cancer entered my life, I never imagined that at 84 years old I would be fighting for something as basic as the right to decide how my own story ends.”

Bill spent decades building a life in Massachusetts—as an attorney, husband, father, grandfather, and community member. But after being diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer, he began facing questions he never expected: how much control would he have over his own end-of-life experience?

While treatment has given him more time, Bill knows that his cancer is terminal. He believes that people facing the end of life should have the freedom to make personal decisions that reflect their own values, without having to leave their homes or cross state lines to access compassionate options.

Today, Bill is sharing his story and why he is advocating for Massachusetts’ End of Life Options Act (H2505/S1486)—so that no terminally ill person has to face unnecessary suffering without the choice they believe is right for them.
