HR 10024 United States House · 118th Congress

SAFER Schools Act of 2024

This bill creates a process for developing safety standards for reinforced doors in schools, not an immediate requirement. It directs CISA to form a committee within 90 days - including school safety experts, law enforcement, and construction professionals - to study door reinforcement technologies, performance standards, and safety considerations like emergency evacuation. After a one-year review, CISA must submit a report to Congress, leading to a final rule requiring door modifications in federally funded K-12 schools. The bill allocates $100 million over 10 years (starting with the fiscal year of the final rule) to fund implementation through the Homeland Security Grant Program.
