The bill is very awkwardly worded, deploying double negatives. From SB 134 (the bracketed words are existing law to be deleted):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201c\u2018A donor may make an anatomical gift: (a) By [authorizing] not refusing to authorize a statement or symbol indicating that the donor has made an anatomical gift to be imprinted on the donor\u2019s driver\u2019s license or identification card) By [authorizing] not refusing to authorize a statement or symbol indicating that the donor has made an anatomical gift to be imprinted on the donor\u2019s driver\u2019s license or identification card.\u2019<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIn other words, driver\u2019s licenses or ID cards would normally come printed with consent to donation, that would only be revoked if the person refused to authorize that default message.
