BILL NUMBER:S6028
TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the tax law, in relation to providing
a tax check off box on personal income tax return forms for the life
pass it on trust fund
PURPOSE:
To allow those filing taxes in the state of New York to contribute to
the "life pass it on" trust fund for the purposes of outreach and
research on this crucial issue.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section 1, authorizes the Commissioner of the Department of Taxation
and Finance to include space on the personal income tax return form
for a 'check off' box that would allow individuals to contribute money
to the "life pass it on" trust fund. Moneys in this fund shall be kept
separate and shall be expended only for outreach and research related
to organ and tissue donation.
JUSTIFICATION:
Today, the need for organ and tissue donation is as acute as it has
ever been. While the number of organ and tissue donors has
remained-static, the need for such donations has risen precipitously.
