Carrollton Fire Rescue partnered w/ @AED123team, the @RedCross, & others to acknowledge new state legislation (SB199 & HB 786) making it easier for businesses & orgs to have functioning AEDs on site, & requires 911 dispatchers be trained in CPR. Both measures go into effect 9/1.
Honored to attend this morning's press conference in support of #SB199 and #HB786 taking effect on 9/1/21! This legislation will lead to more AEDs placed across Texas and more lives saved through CPR & AED use!
Thanks to @AED123team for having us.
