The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 28, aims to allocate funding to the Department of Public Health to support municipalities in equipping emergency medical technicians (EMTs) with intranasal glucagon. The bill specifies that a sum of ____ dollars will be appropriated from the General Fund for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, to facilitate this initiative.

The primary purpose of this legislation is to enhance the capabilities of EMTs by providing them with intranasal glucagon, which is a critical medication for treating severe hypoglycemia in patients. This funding is intended to ensure that EMTs have the necessary resources to effectively respond to medical emergencies involving low blood sugar levels.
