Vermont (USA) Right-to-die Bill advances out of committee
Friday Mar 15, 2007
The House Judiciary Committee voted 6-4 in favor of a bill that would
allow patients with terminal conditions with a prognosis of less than six
months to live to get a prescription to hasten their deaths. Another House
committee also has recommended the bill and it’s likely to be debated by
the full House by the middle of next week.
