The resolution highlights the urgent health crisis faced by over 100,000 Americans, including 1,200 individuals in Alabama, who are currently on the national transplant waiting list. It emphasizes the alarming statistic that a new person is added to this list every nine minutes, and on average, 17 people die each day while waiting for a life-saving organ transplant. To combat this issue, the resolution calls for increased public education and encourages citizens to register as organ, eye, and tissue donors through platforms like legacyofhope.org or their local DMV.

In recognition of the importance of organ donation, the resolution proclaims April as National Donate Life Month in Alabama. It serves to honor the generosity of registered donors and their families, as well as the dedication of medical professionals and researchers who work to save lives through transplantation. The resolution urges Alabama residents to consider the significant impact they can have by becoming donors, as one individual can potentially save and heal the lives of more than 75 people through their donation.
