Information
Organization's Own Description:
The 9-1-1 emergency call system is our citizen's crucial link to emergency service - whether it’s an everyday crisis, natural disaster or terrorist attack. Improving our nation's 9-1-1 system must become a national priority. In 2003, the Congressional E9-1-1 Caucus was formed to elevate the visibility of E9-1-1 at the Federal level, a welcome development to the thousands of public safety officials and first responders throughout the country. Now known as the Congressional NextGen 9-1-1 Caucus, the Caucus is the only bi-partisan, bi-cameral organization dedicated exclusively to emergency communications issues and the education of lawmakers, constituents, and communities about the importance of citizen activated emergency response systems.
Formed on February 25, 2003 as a joint initiative of its four co-chairs, Senators Conrad Burns (R-MT) and Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Representatives John Shimkus (R-IL) and Anna Eshoo (D-CA), the Caucus has passed major legislation in support of emergency services. The Caucus serves as an informal group of Members dedicated to issues related to NextGen 9-1-1 emergency services and educating other Members of Congress on this subject.
