NYS Legislative Office Building and NYS Capitol Map
We will be joining other Compassion & Choices supporters from around the state to tell our legislators how important it is to New Yorkers that end-of-life options be expanded to include medical aid in dying.
This is your chance to help us win! If you’re new to this — no problem! We’ll pair you up with experienced volunteers and provide you with all the background information you’ll need to be up to speed on the issues. You’ll find that these meetings are very interesting and not intimidating at all!
Advance Registration is important to allow for planning and training.
Advocacy Announcement:
Spring 2019 Advocacy Activity
The 2019 campaign to pass the Medical Aid in Dying Act in New York is now in high gear. We’ve already had two special Death with Dignity–Albany lobby days, on February 26 and April 9, with some very productive visits with new legislators. And, both the recent approval of a similar law in New Jersey and the expression of support by Governor Cuomo have added new momentum.
