N.J. law allowing terminally ill patients to end their lives back in effect

It’s unclear what action Gov. John Carney will take. This is the first time the bill has passed both chambers since it was introduced in 2015.

Gov. Murphy, who signed the bill, said that AG Grewal would release guidance for residents in light of the order and vowed to oppose the lawsuit in court.

Civil rights leader Dolores Huerta is joining a push in New Mexico, Nevada, New Jersey and New York to legalize medically assisted suicide for terminally ill patients.
