SB 1260 - This act changes "epinephrine auto-injector" to "epinephrine delivery device" throughout statute. This act adds child care facilities to the definition of "authorized entity" in current law permitting such entities to stock a supply of epinephrine delivery devices for use in an emergency.
Finally, this act establishes "Elijah's Law". Before July 1, 2028, each licensed child care provider shall adopt a policy on allergy prevention and response with a focus on potentially deadly food-borne allergies, as specified in the act. The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education shall develop a model policy or policies before July 1, 2027.
This act is substantially similar to provisions in HCS/SS/SB 7 (2025), HCS/SB 94 (2025), SB 783 (2025), SCS/HCS/HB 943 (2025), and HB 580 (2025).
