Status of Medical Aid in Dying

In late January, a complementary bill, SB 1530 was introduced in the Arizona State Senate, and would authorize medical aid in dying in the Grand Canyon State. It was introduced by Senator Eva Burch, and assigned to the Senate Health & Human Services and Rules Committees.
