Police Commissioner Ray Kelly and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand are pushing for a nationwide police radio network to link first responders.
The proposed wireless broadband network would allow emergency responders on the local, state and federal level to share information in the event of a terrorist attack or other crisis with far-reaching implications.
Gillibrand and Kelly will reveal the bill later today in the hopes of passing it before the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks this year.
A similar system was recommended in the September 11th commission report in 2004.
