The West Virginia Senate on Feb. 13 adopted a resolution designating Feb. 14, 2025, as National Organ Donor Day at the legislature after members heard a presentation about a family whose child became an organ donor.

Senator from Ohio said the day "is set aside each year on Valentine's Day to celebrate the gift of life through organ, tissue, and cornea," and read a statement introducing the Stanley family and describing the family's decision to donate their daughter's organs following a fatal drowning.

The resolution recognition followed the senator's account of the Stanley family: Logan and Angie Stanley and their daughter, identified in the reading as Sala Andrea Stanley, a 2‑year‑old organ donor. The senator said the family worked with CORE and its representative, Lance Wheeler, as part of the donation process. The statement included the date of the incident as 06/20/2024 and noted that the family hopes to meet organ recipients in the future.

The Senate adopted the resolution by voice vote. The presiding officer announced, "The ayes do have it. I declare the resolution adopted," and no roll-call tally was recorded on the floor for the resolution's adoption.

The Senate also conducted routine business during the session. Members introduced several resolutions that would be referred to committees, including naming memorial bridges, and the chamber moved to introduce Senate bills 464 through 505 by unanimous consent. A committee report was received on Senate Bill 460 by the Committee on Health and Human Resources.

The Senate completed its business and stood adjourned until the next scheduled session.
