Lawmakers in Nevada are currently considering SB 165, important legislation that will allow terminally ill people to receive compassionate medical aid-in-dying.
This measure would create a patient-driven system that honors the values and beliefs of the individual.
By passing this legislation, Nevada would join the 8 states that already offer these end-of-life options, allowing terminally ill people to die in the comfort of their homes without receiving unwanted medical care.
However, religious groups, including the Catholic Church, vigorously oppose this common-sense legislation.
Please help us tell lawmakers in Nevada to stand strong and pass this bill!
Although approximately 80% of Americans desire to pass away in the comfort of their own home, less than 20% actually do so. We need your help to pass this important legislation to allow terminally ill people in Nevada to die with dignity, in peace.
