Let’s pass the End Kidney Deaths Act in 2024!
The End Kidney Deaths Act (H.R. 9275) has been introduced by Representative Malliotakis (R-NY) and Representative Harder (D-CA).
90,000 Americans are waiting for a kidney on the transplant waitlist.
Less than 50% of them will be transplanted unless we pass the End Kidney Deaths Act.
Most Americans support compensating kidney donors.
Will we witness another 100,000 Americans die on the waitlist (as they did from 2010-2021), or will we pass the End Kidney Deaths Act so 100,000 Americans will instead be saved by a compensated stranger?
The End Kidney Deaths Act will save up to $37 billion in taxes in the next decade.
Help us pass this life & tax saving legislation!

Encourage organ donation through tax credits
The End Kidney Deaths Act is a ten year pilot program to provide to living kidney donors who give kidneys to strangers on the kidney waitlist, a refundable tax credit of $10,000 per year for five years ($50,000 total). Click here to read the legislative text.
By the 10th year after the passage of the End Kidney Deaths Act, up to 100,000 Americans who were dying on the waitlist will instead have healthy kidney transplants, and we taxpayers will have saved up to $37 billion.
The American Medical Association supports donor compensation pilot studies.
