SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) Public Safety Telecommunicators play a 
critical role in emergency response. 
(2) The work Public Safety Telecommunicators 
perform goes far beyond merely relaying information 
between the public and first responders. 
(3) When responding to reports of missing, ab-
ducted, and sexually exploited children, the informa-
tion obtained and actions taken by Public Safety 
Telecommunicators form the foundation for an effec-
tive response. 
(4) When a hostage taker or suicidal person 
calls 9–1–1, the first contact is with the Public Safe-
ty Telecommunicator whose negotiation skills can 
prevent the situation from getting worse. 
(5) During active shooter incidents, Public 
Safety Telecommunicators coach callers through 
first aid and give advice to prevent further harm, all 
while collecting vital information to provide situa-
tional awareness for responding officers. 
(6) And when police officers, firefighters, and 
Emergency Medical Technicians are being shot at, 
their calls for help go to Public Safety Telecommu-
nicators.

or other applicable international obligations. 
(e) TERMINATION.—This section shall terminate on 
the date that is two years after the date of the enactment 
of this Act. 
(f) REPORT.—Not later than 180 days after the date 
of the enactment of this Act, the President shall transmit 
to the appropriate congressional committees a report re-
garding steps taken to implement this section. 
SEC. 5. CONDITIONS REGARDING USE OF EQUIPMENT 
TRANSFERRED TO SECURITY FORCES. 
(a) CONDITIONS.—Not later than 60 days after the 
date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of State, 
in coordination with the Administrator of the United 
States Agency for International Development and the Sec-
retary of Defense, as appropriate, shall include, in each 
contract, grant, license, or other mechanism providing for 
the transfer of United States equipment to, or use by, the 
Guatemalan military or national police, including for the 
sale of such equipment, a provision that ensures that any 
such equipment may be recovered by the United States 
if such equipment is used in violation of an end use agree-
ment or otherwise for purposes other than for which such 
equipment was transferred.

(7) They are often communicating with people 
in great distress, harm, fear, or injury, while em-
ploying their experience and training to recognize a 
critical piece of information. 
(8) In fact, there have been incidents in which 
Public Safety Telecommunicators, recognizing the 
sound of a racked shotgun, have prevented serious 
harm or death of law enforcement officers who 
would have otherwise walked into a trap. 
(9) This work comes with an extreme emotional 
and physical impact that is compounded by long 
hours and the around-the-clock nature of the job. 
(10) Indeed, research has suggested that Public 
Safety Telecommunicators are exposed to trauma 
that may lead to the development of posttraumatic 
stress disorder. 
(11) Recognizing the risks associated with expo-
sure to traumatic events, some agencies provide 
Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) teams to 
lessen the psychological impact and accelerate recov-
ery for Public Safety Telecommunicators and first 
responders, alike.

system is designed and maintained solely for statis-
tical purposes, and is used by federal statistical

agencies to classify workers and jobs into occupa-
tional categories for the purpose of collecting, calcu-
lating, analyzing, or disseminating data. 
(13) Occupations in the Standard Occupational 
Classification are classified based on work performed 
and, in some cases, on the skills, education, or train-
ing needed to perform the work. 
(14) Classifying public safety telecommunica-
tors as Protective Service Occupations would correct 
an inaccurate representation in the Standard Occu-
pational Classification, recognize these professionals 
for the lifesaving work they perform, and better 
align the Standard Occupational Classification with 
related classification systems.

FICATION SYSTEM. 
The Director of the Office of Management and Budg-
et shall not later than 30 days after the date of the enact-
ment of this Act, categorize public safety telecommunica-
tors as a protective service occupation under the Standard 
Occupational Classification System.
