Colorado faces a lawsuit over its physician-assisted suicide law, with plaintiffs claiming discrimination against the disabled.

On June 30, disability rights groups including the United Spinal Association, Not Dead Yet, the Institute for Patients’ Rights, and Atlantis ADAPT, along with one woman who suffers from anorexia and depression, sued the State of Colorado, Democratic Gov. Jared Polis, and others in response to the state’s End-of-Life Options Act of 2016 (EOLOA). The act requires that an eligible patient be “a capable adult resident of Colorado who has a terminal illness” and that two providers “determine that the individual is capable of making an informed decision.” It has since been amended to include looser restrictions on qualifying physicians and a shorter, waivable 7-day waiting period.
