S. 870 - 118th Congress (2023-2024) - A bill to authorize appropriations for the United States Fire Administration and firefighter assistance grant programs, to advance the benefits of nuclear energy, and for other purposes.

This bill reauthorizes through FY2030 the U.S. Fire Administration, the Assistance to Firefighters Grants Program, and the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grant Program.

The Government Accountability Office must conduct an audit of and issue a publicly available report on

barriers that prevent fire departments from accessing federal funds, and
the U.S. Fire Administration.

The bill makes the government of China, and any entity or organization operating or incorporated in China, ineligible to be a recipient or subrecipient of federal assistance under such programs.
