This bill, titled the Jordan McNair Student Athlete Heat Fatality Prevention Act, seeks to prevent heat-related illnesses and fatalities among student athletes. It mandates that both institutions of higher education and secondary schools with athletic programs develop and implement comprehensive, venue-specific emergency action plans for heat-related illnesses. These requirements are established by amending the Higher Education Act of 1965 and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, with compliance being a condition for receiving federal funds or participating in federal programs. Each emergency action plan must be developed within one year, in consultation with local emergency responders, and include a symptom identification structure and a coordination of care plan . Plans must also detail the operation and use of automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) and cold water immersion equipment . These plans are required to be visibly posted in all athletic facilities, available on the institution's website, and distributed to local emergency responders. Additionally, the plans necessitate annual in-person practice involving student athletes, certified athletic trainers, team physicians, coaches, and other key personnel. Institutions are encouraged to consider guidelines like the Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature index and ensure AEDs are readily accessible. The bill also directs the Secretary of Education to inform schools about available federal grants for heat-related illness prevention, training, and equipment acquisition.
