Bill overview
This bill, the Kidney Donation Anti-Discrimination Act, aims to protect individuals who donate a kidney from being unfairly denied or charged higher rates for life insurance. It prohibits life insurance companies from discriminating against living kidney donors based solely on their donation status, unless there’s evidence of increased risk. The bill also establishes a legal recourse for those harmed by such discrimination and allows states to maintain stronger protections for kidney donors.
