NYS Organ Donating - Proposed Bill

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — A new bill introduced by Assemblyman Pat Burke would automatically enroll New York residents 18 years of age or older as organ donors unless they choose to opt-out of the registry.

“I’m introducing this legislation because I want to start a conversation about how we can get more people on the organ donation registry, and ultimately save more lives,” said Burke.

The legislation that Burke is proposing would create a space on the driver's license applications for applicants to opt-out of of the New York State organ and tissue donor registry.
