Dillon’s Law
This bill amends federal public health grants to give preference to states that permit trained individuals to carry and administer epinephrine during anaphylactic emergencies. It requires states to certify they have civil liability protection laws covering trained individuals who act in good faith during such emergencies, and that their training standards meet medical approval. The law directly affects states seeking federal grants under Section 317 of the Public Health Service Act, as well as trained individuals (e.g., school staff, coaches) who may administer epinephrine. It does not mandate new state laws but offers grant preference to states already meeting these criteria. (Note: The title "Dillon’s Law" appears unrelated to the bill’s content, which focuses on epinephrine access, not local government authority.)
