The state of Nevada is currently considering a bill that would change its organ donation system from an opt-in to an opt-out program, meaning that if citizens don’t opt-out the state has the authority to confiscate organs after death. It’s a program that may help with the organ donation list but could also lead to some deeply troubling ethical situations.
Organ donation is a very personal decision, one that people make often based off their religious faith and personal beliefs. But Nevada wants to take some of that decision-making away from its citizens and instead opt them all into an organ donation program, unless they opt out.
Called Senate Bill 134, it would require that any applicant to the department of motor vehicles be automatically registered as an organ donor unless they opt-out. This legislation was proposed by a heart transplant recipient, 30-year-old Ashley Biehl.
