The CTF Medical Alert System shall be set up and maintained in a manner similar to the Amber Alert System. The Department of Public Safety shall develop regions to provide the system and to coordinate local law enforcement agencies and public commercial television and radio broadcasters. The Department shall also administer and promulgate rules to implement the provisions of this act. Persons knowingly making a false report to trigger an alert under this act shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. This act is identical to SB 41 (2025), SB 1155 (2024), and HB 2395 (2024).
