Despite being sidelined from football during the closing weeks of the NFL season, Hamlin has stayed active ever since he was released from the hospital and has been on a mission to make sure that his story is known to all who encounter him and to ensure that it never happens again.

Weeks ago, Hamlin attended an event on Capitol Hill to speak to lawmakers about the importance of having automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in schools to assist with young student-athletes who may have undetected heart conditions.

Joined by other political figures, Hamlin was there to discuss the Access to AEDs Act, a bill that would provide schools with the money to buy AEDs, improve CPR training and establish response plans in case of a cardiac emergency.
