Bill Intelligence

This bill, named the "National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Extension Act," extends the legislative authority for establishing a memorial for emergency medical services. It specifies that any reference to the expiration or extension of a seven-year period in the previous Public Law 115–275 shall be considered as a reference to an expiration or extension seven years after the enactment of this new Act. This would impact the establishment and extension of a memorial for emergency medical services, ensuring that the authority to establish the memorial continues beyond the initial seven-year period set forth in the previous law.
