This bill aims to reauthorize and update the National Domestic Preparedness Consortium, expanding its membership to include new entities like the Rural Domestic Preparedness Consortium and revising existing member descriptions. These changes ensure a broader reach for preparedness efforts and enhance the Consortium's capacity to deliver critical training. The legislation significantly increases the authorized appropriations for the Consortium, providing specific funding levels from $111 million in fiscal year 2027 up to $125 million in fiscal year 2031 . These funds are designated for entities involved in providing training and education to state, tribal, and territorial public safety personnel through various modalities. A key savings provision ensures that participating entities receive no less than their fiscal year 2023 funding, with mechanisms for proportional allocation and equal distribution of any appropriation increases.
