France to Consider End-of-Life Options with New Bill

French President Emmanuel Macron announced that a draft bill on end-of-life care will be prepared by the end of the summer, building on the work of a group of 184 randomly appointed French citizens who have debated the issue since December. The bill will consider whether some form of assisted dying should be allowed, but it is unclear whether it will include euthanasia or assisted suicide. France's national council of doctors opposes involving doctors in helping people kill themselves.
