End-of-life
The French National Assembly passed Olivier Falorni's bill to establish a right to aid in dying on Wednesday, February 25, with 299 votes in favor, 226 against, and 37 abstentions. This second-reading vote strengthens the text ahead of its uncertain passage in the Senate, following concessions on issues like self-administration of lethal substances. Supporters hailed it as a decisive step, though the majority in favor has slightly narrowed since the first reading.

French deputies have adopted an amendment allowing a patient to delegate the administration of the lethal substance to a caregiver, rather than self-administering it. Supported by left-wing, Renaissance, and LIOT group lawmakers, it passed with 57 votes to 51, despite government opposition. This alters the original text based on assisted suicide.
