Columbia University Professor turned President of the Coalition to Modify NOTA & Executive Director of Waitlist Zero advocating for the passage of the End Kidney Deaths Act (H.R. 2687).
Thanks, Mihkel! I spoke with the leader of transplant in Egypt who told me that "Egypt needs the End Kidney Deaths Act." A doctor from Nigeria said the same thing about Africa where in all but SA, there is not deceased donation program. Once the End Kidney Deaths Act passes here, we can provide support for all countries to pass similar laws.
Low-income Americans are three times more likely to die from kidney failure. The single best way to change that is to ensure an abundance of kidney transplants. The way to get there is by passing the End Kidney Deaths Act.
25 people in the USA will die today because the kidney shortage denied them a transplant.
Congress must act.
