This is an important year for the end-of-life options movement in Illinois. We have a very real opportunity to join 10 states and Washington DC in giving those with a terminal diagnosis a full range of options at the end of life, including medical aid in dying. Senate Bill 3499 allows a mentally capable, terminally ill adult with a prognosis of six months or less to obtain prescription medication that they can decide to take to die peacefully and end their suffering.

Please join the ACLU of Illinois and our partners across the state on Tuesday, March 26 at 4:00 PM for a virtual advocacy training to learn more information about medical aid in dying, SB 3499, and receive training to take action in support of this critical legislation!
