Section 1

Extension of Legislative Authority for Memorial Establishment

prominently featuredstraightforward

This section amends Section 1(b) of Public Law 115-275, which originally granted the National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Foundation the authority to establish a commemorative work. The previous law stipulated that this authority would expire after a 7-year period. This bill revises that expiration clause, replacing the reference to a 7-year period with a specific new expiration date: November 3, 2032. This effectively grants the Foundation additional time to plan, fund, and construct the memorial dedicated to emergency medical services personnel.
