Faster threat alerts in federal buildings

This bill would require GSA and the Federal Protective Service to issue emergency communication guidance within 1 year. It would apply to federal buildings that GSA owns or runs and that the Federal Protective Service protects. The guidance would tell facility security committees how to warn tenants about threats and give clear safety steps during higher risk. Each building’s designated committee official would be responsible for putting the guidance in place. "Life safety events" would mean events that bring first responders, like police, fire and rescue, or natural disaster teams. GSA would have to send Congress a report on what was implemented within 18 months.
