Bill > S2116

This bill ensures that if an individual has designated themselves as an organ donor on their New Jersey driver's license or identification card, that designation will automatically carry over when they renew their license or card, unless they actively choose to remove it. Previously, individuals might have had to re-designate their donor status upon renewal. The bill clarifies that this automatic renewal of the organ donor designation will occur unless the person follows a specific procedure, established by the Chief Administrator of the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission in consultation with designated organ procurement organizations (organizations responsible for recovering organs for transplant), to remove their designation. This change aims to simplify the process and maintain an individual's wishes to be an organ donor without interruption.
