In 2024, through our collective advocacy efforts with other coalition partners, we protected vulnerable Illinoisans from assisted suicide. This legislative session, assisted suicide proponents are pushing to pass Illinois Senate Bill 9 End-of-Life Options Act and Illinois House Bill 1328 End-of-Life Options Act. These bills if passed, would allow for lethal drugs to be prescribed for a terminal diagnosis of six months or less to live. With no mental health evaluation required, no in-person consultation required with telehealth use and a five-day waiting period that could be waived, these bills are dangerous.
CONTACT your legislators TODAY and urge them to vote “NO” on HB 1328 and SB 9.
Thank you for helping in our collective efforts to protect vulnerable Illinoisans and to uphold the values and traditions of the Hippocratic Oath.
