Senator Young Calls For Organ Transplant System Overhaul

WASHINGTON, D.C. (NETWORK INDIANA):  Your senator believes the nation’s organ transplant and donation system needs revamped.

In a committee hearing, Senator Todd Young (R) says organizations like United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) have held a monopoly on the donation and transplant system for so long that it’s having negative effects on the people whom need it most.

“Since I got involved in this issue, I was told time and time again, from UNOS, HHS, other interested parties, that management principals didn’t apply,” says Young.

He says the basic principals of effectively managing something do work and can be applied, but the problem is the monopoly control, as he sees it.

“We’ve seen it manifest itself in lost lives, anxious individuals, and incredible professionals who are trying to do the best they can within this system,” Young explains.

Young says he wants a better-functioning organ donation system, which he says could make tens of thousands more organ transplants every year.

At the end of the Day, We need to Replace Todd Young with a Conservative. This guy just sucks-A RINO puppet.

Haven’t really heard much from Todd since his reelection (unfortunate reelection), but this is what he decided to go after?

Is this transplant story an issue? Sure. BUT Joe Biden has committed Treason, not a peep from Todd.

I’m sick of this guy.

Of all the issues Mr. Milktoast RINO touches on something completely neutral. It’s what RINOs always do. Forget about this RINO standing up for the rule of law, for equal justice at a time when the opposing party is running cover-up after cover-up of the fraud in the WH. Thanks Todd, for absolutely nothing. Wonder which one of his relatives needs a transplant?

Still waiting for Toad Young to address a real problem, like the open border that lets in sex traffickers (modern slavers) and illegal drugs that kill 100,000 Americans each year. Toad makes everyone SICK to their stomach. What a wast of oxygen and suits.

RINO Young is an embarrassment and a disappointment to conservative Hoosiers. He should just make it official and switch parties.
