National Domestic Preparedness Consortium Reauthorization Act
This bill reauthorizes the National Domestic Preparedness Consortium, a program that provides training and resources to first responders across the United States. The legislation extends funding through fiscal year 2031, with annual appropriations increasing from $111 million in 2027 to $125 million in 2031. It updates the list of participating organizations to include new entities such as the Academy of Counter-Terrorist Education and the Rural Domestic Preparedness Consortium, while also expanding eligibility to include territorial public safety agencies. The bill includes provisions to ensure each participating organization receives at least the same funding level they received in 2023, with any additional funds distributed equally among them.
