Federal Prisons Naloxone Access Act of 2025

This bill would require the federal Bureau of Prisons to keep opioid overdose reversal kits, such as naloxone, at every federal prison in places like housing units, dining halls, staff breakrooms, and visiting areas. Incarcerated people would be allowed to access the kits to give to someone who is overdosing, and staff and incarcerated people would get yearly training on how to use them. Each use of a kit would have to be recorded, and incarcerated people could not be held liable for using a kit in good faith. The Bureau would report to Congress each year, and the bill authorizes $6 million for 2026 and $2 million each for 2027 and 2028.
