Donate Life Month Donate Life Month. This measure would proclaim the month of April as Donate Life Month in California. NO

WHEREAS, The Legislature has established an official state organ and tissue donor registry that has become the largest in the world, with almost 20,000,000 people signed up to save and heal the lives of others after death, although there is work to be done with our growing population of over 40,000,000; and

WHEREAS, California has the greatest need for transplantation in the nation, with almost 20,000 residents waiting for a second chance at life; and

WHEREAS, One thousand eight hundred fifty-three Californians became organ donors in and over 4,000 lifesaving transplants were performed in our state that year. Tragically, more than people died while waiting due to the shortage of available organs; and

WHEREAS, Donate Life California’s vision is that one day all Californians will embrace organ, eye, and tissue donation as their personal responsibility;

now, therefore,

be it Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate thereof concurring, That in recognition of the month of April as National Donate Life Month, the Legislature proclaims the month of April as Donate Life Month in the State of California; and be it further Resolved, That in doing so, the Legislature encourages all Californians to register with the Donate Life California Organ and Tissue Donor Registry by checking “YES!” for organ and tissue donation when applying for or renewing a driver’s license or identification card, or by signing up at www.donateLIFEcalifornia.org or www.doneVIDAcalifornia.org; and be it further Resolved, That the Legislature underscores its renewed efforts to save more lives through donor registration and calls on all Members of the Legislature to consider how to share information about the cause and about actions to help their constituents in need; and be it further Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of this resolution to the author for appropriate distribution.
