The "Save BRIC Act" proposes to amend the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act to make predisaster hazard mitigation assistance mandatory. Currently, the President "may" provide such assistance, but this bill changes that to "shall" in subsections (b) and (c) of Section 203. This change aims to ensure consistent federal support for proactive measures that reduce the impact of future disasters. The bill highlights that programs like the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) program , which it states was cancelled, are crucial for protecting communities. Congress finds that every dollar invested in predisaster mitigation can save up to thirteen dollars in disaster recovery costs, emphasizing the economic and safety benefits of this mandatory approach.
