Summary
This bill requires a donor who originally became a donor in another jurisdiction to authorize that a statement/symbol be imprinted on the donor’s drivers licensure or ID card issued in this State in order for the anatomical gift to be valid.
This bill also requires that a statement/symbol indicating consent to make an anatomical gift remain on a donor’s drivers license or ID card until the donor revokes consent to make an anatomical gift by asking for the statement/symbol to be removed.
