Bill overview
The Linemen Legacy Act clarifies that utility line technicians are considered emergency response providers under federal law. Currently, the Homeland Security Act of 2002 didn’t explicitly include these workers. This bill amends the Act to specifically include utility line technicians who respond to major disasters or emergencies declared by the President. This aims to recognize and support the vital work these technicians perform during critical events.
