Last Chance to Weigh in on End of Life Options

Posted in: Get Involved, Policy & AdvocacyPosted on March 26, 2024

Last week, the NH House of Representatives narrowly passed a bill to legalize assisted suicide in the Granite State. However, this vote may be reconsidered this Thursday, March 28, presenting one last opportunity for the public to weigh in and let their legislators know their opinion on this issue.

DRC-NH opposes this bill. Instead of laws that could lead to coercion and premature death of people with disabilities, we should be focused on providing access to community based medical care for all people.

Review HB 1283 as amended.
