Epilepsy Foundation announced that Utah Governor Spencer Cox signed House Bill 241 into law on March 23, and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed House Bill 173 into law on March 25, thereby protecting children and teens living with the epilepsies in both states. With the passage of these bills, the Foundation, along with key partners, state legislators, and advocates, applaud the 14 states that have now enacted versions of the Epilepsy Foundation’s Seizure Safe Schools model legislation. In addition, more than a dozen Seizure Safe Schools bills have been introduced across the U.S. during the 2022 state legislative session, including Arizona, California, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, and South Carolina, which continue to make critical strides forward.
