This bill directs the Secretary of Transportation, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, to establish a grant program. This program will provide financial and technical assistance to states for developing and implementing systems to collect voluntary emergency contact information for inclusion in driver's license and identification records. States receiving assistance must adhere to strict requirements, including ensuring that the provision of information is voluntary and that robust data security protections are in place. Access to this sensitive information will be restricted solely to authorized emergency personnel for use only during an emergency, and it will not be displayed on physical driver's licenses or identification cards. The Secretary is also required to submit an annual report to Congress on the program's implementation.
