The U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) is updating its information and analytics. The platform will integrate data from multiple federal data sets.

U.S. Senators Gary Peters (D-MI), Cory Gardner (R-CO), Dan Sullivan (R-AK) and Maggie Hassan (D-NH) introduced bipartisan legislation to help protect the health and safety of firefighters and emergency responders who are frequently exposed to harmful per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in firefighting foams as they work to keep communities safe. 

The pills would be able to transmit information on internal body temperature, perspiration and heart rates, and hopefully provide enough data to save more firefighters' lives.
