About this episode
New York has become the 13th state, along with Washington, D.C., to legalize medically assisted suicide. More than a dozen other states are also considering legalizing the practice, which supporters call medical aid in dying. Stephanie Sy traveled to both coasts to reexamine an issue that has divided Americans along moral and political lines. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders.
