Faced with a terminal diagnosis, Maryland residents deserve the full range of options for care at the end of life, including medical aid in dying. Medical aid in dying allows terminally ill adults to get a prescription they can take to end their life peacefully.
Despite unprecedented momentum to pass the Maryland End of Life Option Act, the Maryland legislature has decided not to take action on the bill due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will not stop working in the state, and we are pivoting our focus to preparing for the 2022 legislative session.
