HR 1044 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Resolution; recognizing the month of April 2026 as National Donate Life Month.

This Oklahoma House resolution recognizes April 2026 as National Donate Life Month to raise awareness about organ, eye, and tissue donation. The bill highlights the critical need for donors by noting that over 100,000 people are currently waiting for transplants and that 13 people die daily due to organ shortages. It encourages all residents to register as donors through the Oklahoma registry or when renewing their driver's license. The resolution serves as an official statement of support for the campaign rather than creating new laws or funding.
