An Act amending Title 44 (Law and Justice) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in Pennsylvania State Police, providing for special emergency response teams.
HB 2062 establishes six specialized emergency response teams within the Pennsylvania State Police, one for each of six designated geographic regions (Northwest, North Central, Northeast, Southeast, Central-South Central, and Southwest). These teams will handle incidents requiring rapid, tactical responses, with the State Police Commissioner setting their duties and mandatory training requirements. The training covers critical skills like safe building entry, team communication during operations, threat identification under stress, and preventing friendly fire. The bill mandates that the Commissioner develop selection criteria for team members and distribute these to regional stations.
