School Shooting Safety & Preparedness Bill Gains Support From National Organizations

The House Education and Labor Committee is scheduled to debate and vote on HR 4301 on Sept. 18, 2019, the School Shooting Safety and Preparedness Act.

The legislation introduced last week by Reps. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawai‘i-02), Lucy McBath (Georgia-06), and Jahana Hayes (Conn.-05) would create a federal definition for “school shooting” and instructs the Departments of Education, in consultation with the Departments of Justice and Health and Human Services, to annually report uniform data on indicators of school crime as it pertains to school shootings.
