Relates to notification of the national bone marrow program; repealer
This bill requires New York's Department of Motor Vehicles to add contact information for the National Marrow Donor Program (including address, phone, and website) to driver's license, renewal, and voter applications. It mandates that applicants see a clear description of the program's purpose and a simple "yes/skip" option to register as a marrow donor, with the note that skipping does not imply refusal. The bill affects all applicants for driver's licenses, ID cards, or voter registrations in New York. It repeals an outdated section of the law and updates application forms to include this information, aligning with existing organ donation registration processes.
