This bill updates school health rules tied to children’s asthma grant programs. It encourages states to let trained people who are not school employees give epinephrine at school during emergencies. If a state allows this and meets training and certification checks, it can get preference for federal asthma-related grants. The bill also updates the wording so schools can use any epinephrine delivery system, not just auto‑injectors.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Students, schools, and trained community members who can respond to severe allergic reactions at school.
• What changes: States can get grant preference if schools treat trained non-employees as part of their “trained personnel” for giving epinephrine; language is broadened to cover all epinephrine delivery systems.
• Safeguards: Non-employee responders must meet training requirements, and the state attorney general must reaffirm the state’s certification to qualify for the preference.
