AI Summary
This bill creates the Commonwealth of Kentucky Living Organ Donor Leave Program, which allows full-time employees of the executive, judicial, or legislative branches of the state government to take paid leave for donating a human organ (up to 240 hours) or bone marrow (up to 40 hours). The bill also amends existing laws to define "human organ" and "qualified organ donation expenses", allow a tax deduction for such expenses up to $10,000, and require reporting on the organ donation tax deduction by the Department of Revenue. The bill aims to promote living donor human organ and bone marrow donation by providing state employees with paid leave to undergo these medical procedures.
