Bill Summary

General Description: This bill addresses organ donation.

AI Summary

This bill amends Utah's tax code to require the state tax commission to include information about organ donation registration in each individual income tax instruction booklet. Specifically, the bill mandates that the commission provide instructions for accessing a donor registry as defined in Section 26B-8-301 and include details about the option to register as an organ donor. This change aims to increase awareness and accessibility of organ donation registration by leveraging the widely distributed tax instruction booklets as a communication channel. The bill will take effect on May 7, 2025, giving the tax commission time to update their materials. The provision builds upon existing tax return documentation requirements, which already include a statement about how state income tax supports education, children, and individuals with disabilities.
