The National Assembly voted on Wednesday on the bill on aid in dying by 291 votes in favour, 241 against and 29 abstentions. The Prime Minister and the president of the Senate announced they would refer it to the Constitutional Council.

The bill legalising euthanasia and assisted suicide was definitively adopted by the National Assembly on 15 July 2026. Emmanuel Macron hailed the fulfilment of his commitment made in 2022.

Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu and Senate President Gérard Larcher announced the referral to the Constitutional Council. Contrasting reactions followed the vote, with support and criticism from deputies across the spectrum.

The Church of France deplored a serious rupture in the country's history. Emmanuel Hirsch and Laurent Frémont announced the creation of an End-of-Life Observatory to monitor the implementation of the text.

Initial reactions on X show a divide: left-leaning deputies and supporters hail the vote as a victory for individual freedom and dignified death, while conservatives, religious figures, and opponents label it a dangerous 'machine to kill' or societal abandonment, expressing hope for constitutional council intervention and criticizing the shift from palliative care.
