National Kidney Foundation has also been actively lobbying for national legislation (Living Donor Protection Act of 2021). https://voices.kidney.org/ldpa/

Only 10 months left in this Congress to get it passed. Otherwise, we have to start all over again (as has happened many times before). https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/1255
