Twenty-one donation and transplant organizations have joined the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) in its support for the Organ Donation Referral Improvement Act. This important bipartisan bill will help increase the number of potential organ donors by identifying and recommending best practices for organ donor referral software tools, with the goal of increasing the number of Americans who receive a lifesaving transplant.
Together, the 22 organizations signed a letter of support to the bill’s sponsors, Reps. Rob Wittman, Jennifer McClellan, Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Jim Costa. The organizations thank the representatives for their support and urge the House to quickly pass this much-needed bill.
For more information, see UNOS’ press release supporting the bill’s introduction and the full text of the bill.
