Database State 9-1-1 Bill Tracking Database

Updated November 20, 2023
Related Topic: Technology

The National Conference of State Legislatures works in cooperation with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to bring you up-to-date, real-time information about 911 legislation that has been introduced in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.

The 911 system was designed to provide a universal, easy-to-remember number for people to reach police, fire or emergency medical assistance from any phone in any location, without having to look up specific phone numbers. Today, people communicate in ways that the designers of the original 911 system could not have envisioned: wireless phones, text and video messages, social media, Internet Protocol (IP)-enabled devices, and more.

Database Notes

You can search legislation for each year from 2012 to the present by state, topic, keyword, year, status or primary sponsor. New measures are added quarterly by NCSL staff. 

Bills may appear twice in carryover states. In these states, please check the last date of action to ensure the status of the bill reflects the appropriate year.

For faster performance, please use the fields below to filter your results. If you select nothing, the default search will pick up all topics and states in the most recent session year available. The full text of bills is available by clicking on the bill number.
