Judge Shields Catholic Providers From Illinois Suicide Law
x/illinois
— Sep 11, 2026
A federal judge temporarily shields Catholic entities, including the Archdiocese of Chicago and two Religious Sisters, from Illinois’s physician-assisted suicide law as litigation proceeds, delaying enforcement against them while allowing the policy to take effect elsewhere. Proponents say the law expands autonomy and provides end-of-life options, while Catholic groups warn it coerces conscience and threatens vulnerable patients, prompting ongoing legal challenges.

Cardinal Cupich, Catholic groups sue Illinois to block assisted-suicide law
x/illinois
— Sep 3, 2026
Cardinal Blase Cupich, two Catholic religious orders, and a rural Illinois pharmacist sued the state to block its upcoming End-of-Life Options for Terminally Ill Patients Act, arguing it violates their religious beliefs by obligating them to participate in or facilitate assisted suicide. The filings, supported by Becket and targeting the law before its Sept. 12 take effect, contend the measure coerces religious caregivers and would threaten their institutions’ missions, prompting multiple parallel lawsuits across state lines.
