EXPLORING THE MEDICAL AID IN DYING BILL
On May 23, 2024, City Watch hosts Jeff Simmons and Carlos Menchaca delve into New York's Medical Aid in Dying Bill, a highly debated piece of legislation that allows terminally ill adults to seek medical assistance to end their lives peacefully. The bill, aimed at providing a compassionate choice for patients facing unbearable suffering, includes strict safeguards to ensure voluntary and informed consent, comprehensive evaluations by healthcare professionals, and thorough documentation.
Join us as we discuss the ethical, legal, and medical implications of this groundbreaking bill with Corrine Carey, Compassion & Choices’ Senior Campaign Director for New York and New Jersey.
And we take your calls throughout the show at (212) 209-2877.
PLEASE DONATE TO WBAI TO SUPPORT THIS SHOW AND THE STATION. WE NEED TO RAISE $150,000 TO PAY OUR BILLS OR WE COULD GO OFF THE AIR, SO EVERY AMOUNT COUNTS. VISIT GIVE2WBAI.ORG OR CALL (212) 209-2950 TO DONATE.
