This bill replaces the current competitive process for predisaster hazard mitigation funding with a fixed formula: one-third split equally among eligible states, one-third by population, and one-third by states' most vulnerable critical infrastructure. It guarantees Native American tribal governments at least $75 million total, gives states (not the President directly) authority to choose local projects, and requires states to pass along at least half their funding to local governments. It also clarifies that predisaster funding won't disqualify projects from separate post-disaster recovery funding, and vice versa.
States, tribal governments, local governments, and emergency management agencies that apply for federal disaster-preparedness funding are directly affected.
The change shifts decision-making power over which projects get funded from the President to states, and could alter which communities receive money to prepare for floods, storms, wildfires, and other hazards.
The summary specifies that tribal governments are guaranteed at least $75 million total, with remaining funds split by the one-third formula described above; no overall program budget is stated.
