Most people, for whatever reason, do not participate in the organ donation system in the United States. The U.S. has an "opt-in" system which requires an adult to explicitly sign up.
Nations such as Austria have an "opt-out" system, where participation rates are almost 100%. As such, I believe the U.S. should switch to this type of system, and I encourage you to sign this petition. With any luck, the Government will at least make an official statement on the subject:
Pass a Bill to Change the United States' Organ Donation System to be "Opt-Out" Rather Than "Opt-In"
