Vermont became the first state in the U.S. to remove a residency requirement for terminally ill patients seeking to die by medical assistance, allowing adults living out-of-state to travel there for end-of-life care. 

The state legalized medically assisted death for residents a decade ago. On Tuesday, Republican Gov. Phil Scott signed into law a bill eliminating the residency requirement, after it passed the state’s House of Representatives and Senate last month.
