Improve an open data bill to prevent heart attack deaths in NYC

New Yorkers don't know where our nearest automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are, so when someone has a heart attack, we lose people we could save. A new NY City Council bill aims to open that data. We need your help to improve it and get it passed.

You don't have to be a New Yorker to help! If you have expertise in health education or open data more generally, or can do 30 minutes of research about your area, you can help. You don't have to write a lot! A paragraph is fine. Submit written testimony by 10am ET on Sunday, April 2nd.

I wrote a post with details:
  1. The context: where this data is and why we need it
  2. The current bill: Int 0814-2022
  3. How you can help (the clock is ticking)
Thanks.
