What this bill would do

This bill, known as "Gio's Law," seeks to amend the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. It establishes a grant program to provide law enforcement officers with access to and training on epinephrine products. The Attorney General is authorized to grant funds to States and local government units for purchasing products and training officers. Training will focus on recognizing anaphylactic reaction symptoms and correctly administering epinephrine. To receive a grant, a State must certify that officers are protected from civil liability when administering these products. Finally, the bill mandates annual data reporting and a public awareness campaign.
