Introduced

Summary

Restrict federal funding for emergency response maps unless those maps meet strict technical, accessibility, and distribution standards. The bill would bar federal spending for map procurement starting in fiscal year 2026 unless maps use open digital formats, are stored in the United States, integrate with covered public safety agency software, include specified, walkthrough-verified site features, can be updated, and are shared without subscription fees.

Show full summary
  • Site owners and map procurers would need maps that can be printed, overlay aerial imagery for any floor, show true north and a coordinate grid, and label features like access points, exterior doors, hallways, stairwells, hazards, key boxes, parking areas, roads, rooms, central utility controls, and trauma kits.
  • Covered public safety agencies, defined as Federal or State, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) entities, would receive interoperable maps that integrate with their software and must be provided to the procurer and each agency without subscription fees.
  • Map vendors and contractors would be required to store maps in the United States, deliver digital files readable on common devices, allow updates, and verify accuracy by a walkthrough inspection.
  • The Secretary of Homeland Security, acting through the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, would have to produce a procurement strategy within 1 year for federal sites the Secretary deems critical and brief Congress within 180 days after submitting that strategy.

Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Homeland Security plan to map critical sites

Within one year after enactment, Homeland Security would send Congress a plan to buy qualifying emergency maps for any federal site the Secretary deems critical. The plan would explain how to give those maps to each public safety agency that serves the site. Within 180 days after sending the plan, the Secretary would brief the named congressional committees.

New rules for federally funded emergency maps

Starting in fiscal year 2026, federal money could only buy emergency response maps that meet strict standards. The map would have to be a digital file readable on common devices, stored in U.S. data centers, and printable and shareable. It would need to work with software used by the public safety agencies for that site, show true north with a grid, and include aerial overlays for any floor. It would have to label key features like doors, rooms, hallways, stairwells, access points, building controls, hazards, parking, nearby roads, courtyards or fields, key boxes, and trauma kits. A walkthrough would verify accuracy, updates must be possible, and after purchase the buyer and each covered public safety agency would get access with no subscription fee. The bill would also define who counts as a covered public safety agency, what a map and a site are, and that the Secretary means Homeland Security acting through CISA.
