Assemblymember & inpatient oncology nurse Karines Reyes made a powerful case for #MedicalAidInDying by laying out the extent of suffering some terminally ill people endure during the 4/29 floor debate.
S138 mitigates this.

Yet another conversation on #MedicalAidInDying that you said you were looking for, @leaderasc.bsky.social. ICYMI, you can get watch the recording later. I'm sure you'll want to watch since you seem not to be aware that convos like these have been going on for decades.
