An Act relative to emergency response in an active shooter or hostile event situation

This bill establishes a new state-level framework to improve emergency responses to active shooter or hostile events in Massachusetts. It creates an executive council within the Department of Public Safety that includes representatives from law enforcement, fire services, medical professionals, and other key groups to coordinate planning and training. The legislation mandates the adoption of a specific national standard for these situations and requires the department to set minimum training requirements for all emergency responders. Additionally, the council must meet quarterly to oversee efforts and submit an annual report to the legislature by June 30.
