New Legislation - FEMA Disaster Declaration - Tammy Green - 05-04-2017

https://www.countable.us/bills/hr1665-115

This bill just passed the house, thoughts?

This bill would require the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to give greater consideration to the local effects of disasters when reviewing state or tribal requests for a major disaster declaration. It would also require FEMA to consider whether there have been multiple recent disasters in an area. Currently, FEMA considers the extent of both statewide and localized damage when deciding whether to recommend that the president issue such a declaration.

FEMA would be required to provide a report to relevant congressional committees within one year that details changes made to its regulations in response to this legislation, and the number of disaster declarations that have been declared based on the new criteria.
