HR 2196Senate vote Aug 7, 2026Became Law

What the chamber passed

National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Extension Act

What this does

The bill extends the window Congress gave the National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Foundation to establish a commemorative work in Washington, D.C. and its surrounding area. The original authorizing law tied the foundation's seven-year window to the 2018 enactment of Public Law 115-275. This bill resets that seven-year clock to run instead from the date this extension act is enacted.

Passed the Senate by unanimous consent

Passed the House by voice vote

How we know · 1 sourced claims
  • The bill amends Section 1(b) of Public Law 115-275 so the seven-year window for establishing the National Emergency Medical Services Memorial commemorative work runs from the date of enactment of this extension Act, rather than from the 2018 enactment of the original authorizing law.Source: Sec. 2

Reported lobbying

At least

1

organization named this measure in a lobbying filing.

A floor, not a total. Those organizations were counted by the client name on 4 quarterly reports filed by 1 lobbying firm in 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2026 Q1 and 2026 Q2. The disclosure form takes a free text description of the issue, so an organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.

The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position (a filer may describe one in its own words), so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.

The organization named

  • NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL TECHNICIANS (NAEMT)

Listed as filed. It is every client name on the filings counted here.

From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1 and 2026 Q2. Our copy holds 2 fewer filings for 2025 Q4 and 7 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q3 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
