Lulu’s Law
HR 9376, "Lulu’s Law," requires the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to update wireless emergency alert regulations within 60 days of enactment. It specifically adds "shark attack" as an event eligible for emergency Alert Messages under FCC rules. This change directly affects how emergency alerts are categorized and transmitted to the public via wireless devices. The bill modifies existing FCC regulations (Title 47, Part 10) to include shark attacks as a triggering event for emergency alerts, without altering other alert types or requirements.
