New Hampshire Assisted Suicide Bill Likely Dead

By Alex Schadenberg, Executive Director, Euthanasia Prevention Coalition.

The New Hampshire assisted suicide bill (House Bill 254) is likely dead in 2025 following a close vote to table the bill in the House of Representatives.  William Skipworth reported for The New Hampshire Bulletin on March 20, 2025 that:

By a single vote, the New Hampshire House of Representatives decided to table a proposal to legalize assisted suicide.

By tabling this bill, the House decided not to advance it to the Senate, but didn’t kill it entirely. Lawmakers can still bring it back up for a vote should they choose. The bipartisan vote to table it was 183-182.
