This bill requires the Department of Homeland Security to repeat, every three years, a report on how areas losing Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) funding manage the transition. A 2023 law had only required this report once, 18 months after it took effect.
It affects city and county governments that previously received UASI funding, emergency management officials, and the Department of Homeland Security, which prepares the reports.
Regular reporting would give Congress and the public ongoing visibility into whether local security and emergency preparedness capabilities are maintained after federal funding ends.
