Source: Pressmaster / GettyThe state of New York became the 14th state to legalize medical aid in dying for the terminally ill on Wednesday, after a decade-long fight between advocates for the new policy and those who have vehemently opposed it.
“The goal is really to make sure that people have that full array of options because medical aid in dying ultimately is something that very few people pursue, but it gives people comfort knowing that it’s available.”
Diaz also said he hopes other states with pending medical aid in dying legislation, including Maryland, Massachusetts, Virginia and Minnesota, have the same outcomes.
