or

:g/TODO/;+y U

which is short-hand for

:g/TODO/.;+1y

so you can adjust the yanked-range forward/backwards as you see fit,
such as "can I get the line before and after the match?" which would
be

:g/TODO/-,+y U

It looks a bit opaque to the uninitiated, but when you break it down,
it's pretty simple, and something that's a lot harder (if not
impossible) in other editors.
