## Resource

A federal judge has granted Catholic nuns and healthcare ministries in New York a temporary win, blocking a new state law that would have forced them to recommend medically assisted suicide — a practice they believe violates their core religious convictions. Facing potential fines or jail time for refusing, the nuns argue that federal protections for conscience should override New York’s mandate. The ruling allows them to continue providing compassionate, life-affirming care until the legal battle concludes, marking a vital moment for religious freedom in end-of-life care.
