Your voice needs to be heard!  This year, your legislators are facing a new bill, AB 346, and it is vital that they hear from you! Please take a few minutes to send a message today to your State Senator and State Assembly Member asking them to vote NO on the AB 346.  

Assisted suicide is dangerous and discriminatory policy that puts our vulnerable family, friends, and neighbors at risk. Suicide is not medical care, and Nevadans deserve better access to quality care, such as in-home hospice and palliative care, not an ill-conceived public policy that puts patients at risk of mistakes, coercion, and abuse.

Here are some of the reasons why your legislators must vote NO on AB 346:

1. Patients have been denied coverage for lifesaving treatment and offered assisted suicide instead.

2. Young women with anorexia have been given lethal drugs by their doctor under this same policy in Colorado and Oregon. 

3. Pain and suffering never make it into the top 5 reasons why patients die by assisted suicide in Oregon.  Rather, the most commonly cited reasons are disability related concerns, which is why the National Council on Disability rejects assisted suicide.

4. Mental conditions are ignored and depressed patients receive lethal medications. 

5. Doctors make mistakes and patients who are not dying receive the prescription drugs.
