Bill updates organ procurement

November 26, 2007 By WRN Contributor

Proposed legislation could make organ donations easier. Every year, thousands of people die on organ transplant waiting lists, and it doesn't have to happen. Representative Steve Wieckert's bill incorporates changes to the federal Uniform Anatomical Gift Act of 1987.
