B. Oregon has a statute permitting assisted su*c*de.

Explanation:

In 1997, Oregon implemented the Death With Dignity Act, becoming the first US state to legalize assisted su*c*de. Over the years, four other states have also legalized, and six more are rivaling such legislation.

In the last two decades, 752 people have ended their lives through assisted su*c*de. Only one in six requests, however, is actually approved by the Oregon Medical Board. The requirements in the state of Oregon for assisted su*c*de to be permitted are several: the patient must be over 18 years old, able to communicate, suffering from a terminal illness that will end his or her life within 6 months, and that the request be signed by two witnesses. The patient may give up at any time.
