Summary

Authorizes existing federal public-safety grants to be used to train first responders on containment devices and to buy those devices to prevent secondary exposure to fentanyl and other potentially lethal substances. The change adds containment-device training and procurement to the list of allowable uses under the specified grant program but does not appropriate new funds or create a new program.

• Adds containment-device training and procurement to the list of allowable uses under an existing federal public-safety grant statute.
• Makes States, local governments, and Indian tribes eligible to use covered grant funds for these purposes.
• Targets prevention of secondary exposure to fentanyl and other potentially lethal substances for first responders.
• Does not appropriate new money or change existing grant eligibility rules beyond the new allowable uses.
• Implements the change through the grant program's existing application and award processes.
• Does not define specific training standards, device types, or reporting requirements.
• Effectiveness depends on available grant funding and grant recipients choosing these uses in applications.
