Section 22-19-140 Legislative intent. (a) The Legislature of Alabama is acutely aware of the
serious shortage of organs needed for transplantation. In its concern with this shortage of
organs, the Legislature intends to establish in this article, a mechanism for the requesting
of donor organs of any person who has died in a hospital and has not made an anatomical gift
to take effect upon death. (b) The Legislature of Alabama believes the citizens of Alabama
are compassionate and loving, and, in the appropriate circumstances, will respond to the request
for organs for transplantation in that such a gift is, many times, literally, a "gift
of life". (c) It is also the intent of the Legislature of Alabama to encourage organ
donation in Alabama by establishing "The Lifesaving Organ Procurement Act of 1986."
