Although the Assisted Suicide bill (A1504) did not get scheduled for a vote in June, supporters of this bill are working very hard to to try to get this legislation passed before the end of the year.
On Thursday, September 27th, all members of the Assembly and Senate will be at the State House to attend Voting Sessions, so it is very important that we have a strong presence in the halls of Trenton that day to let our lawmakers know that NJ citizens strongly oppose the legalization of Assisted Suicide.
At this time, we are asking you to please do the following:
1. Plan to meet us in the State House Cafeteria on Thursday, September 27th by 9 a.m. Bring your photo ID which you will need to go through security at the State House and for parking in the Underground State House Garage. Inform the security guard(s) that you are there to attend the Assembly Voting Session.

2. Please remember to be cordial when speaking to legislators even if they disagree with our point of view. If given the opportunity, please use personal experiences to convince legislators to vote against this bill. We will provide labels to wear on your clothing. We will also provide material to give to legislators and hand outs to help you talk to them about this issue.
3. Please do not engage with supporters of the bill while you are at the State House.
4. Please RSVP to [email protected] to let us know if you plan to attend so we can get a headcount.
