CURRENT STATUS: NO ACTIVE LEGISLATION
No Clear Path
There is no clear indication that lawmakers in this state are prepared to unite and move forward on a bill. This underscores the need for a strong, national movement.
In partnership with Death with Dignity, the grassroots group Florida Death with Dignity is working to ensure Florida residents with a terminal illness can choose to die in a peaceful, humane manner in a place and time of their choosing.
Will you fight with us to work toward a Death with Dignity law for Florida?
