| Message | "Interesting. We are unsure what position to take on this. On the one hand, the need for organ donations is great. On the other, this law would make it harder to protect the sanctity of the bodies of loved ones after they die. We're assuming that next-of-kin may state that consent is not given. From there, we'll consider this bill and will be looking closely at how other parties, especially the Just as Silly party, vote." -- Director General Angel Daniels |
