The committee(s) on JHA recommend(s) that the measure be deferred.
Summary
The bill shields firefighters, police, EMTs and other first responders from liability if they do not conduct rescues during an active hazard after a predictive evacuation order. It says anyone who knowingly stays in the evacuation zone assumes the risk and cannot sue, and requires responders to avoid dangerous zones until the hazard passes, with limited exceptions.
