Updates
NAAG’s EOL project comes to an end with the posting of the June Update. Great strides have been made in the objectives of the project since its inception in 2003. States have re-worked legislation, regulations, and policies to ensure that the end-of-life choices made by their citizens are respected and that more consumers make their wishes known. States have enhanced their awareness of the need for balancing prosecution regarding diversion of controlled substances with ensuring that those in pain receive appropriate and adequate medication. The community of people who has come together to promote the ends of the project have included Attorneys General and their staffs, ethicists, medical personnel, advocates in the pain and end-of-life communities, and other stakeholders. We extend our thanks to all who have contributed to making this project so successful, especially Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson and the distinguished members of the project’s Advisory Board. We at NAAG offer everyone who has taken part in the end-of-life project our sincere appreciation and, in the words of the traditional Navy blessing, wish all of you “fair winds and following seas.”
