Arnold Schwarzenegger has decided to go ahead and support organ donation. Which means, Arnold, who is the Governor of the state of California would be counted in the list of people like Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple, among those who support organ donation.

Mr. Schwarzenegger would be the first person to ink a new legislation that would support the creation of donor registry for kidney transplants. Steve Jobs has been supporting transplants, as he himself had undergone one in the year 2009. He added that it was only he, who knew how important life is and how the transplant affected his life.

The legislation has been built on the idea that any person in the United States could ink papers for donating a kidney and continue to live a normal life. The law also allows employees to take five days off work to donate bone marrow, whereas, the number of off-days for workers who donate their kidney would shoot up to 30 days.

The signatory occurred after Mr. Schwarzenegger heard the story of Mr. Jobs and how he underwent a liver transplant after complications from pancreatic cancer had endangered his life. The ink on paper by the Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger would help in setting up the first kidney donor registry in the US for living organ donors.
