Updated: Mar 6, 2026
Summary
This bill prohibits the Secretary of Homeland Security from implementing any policy that imposes an arbitrary monetary threshold on the obligation or disbursement of disaster relief funds. It specifically targets fixed dollar amount requirements that could condition, delay, or necessitate additional approval for the release of these critical funds. The legislation applies to funds provided to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for major disaster or emergency assistance under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act. By defining "monetary threshold" as any fixed dollar amount requirement impacting fund allocation, the bill seeks to ensure more efficient and timely access to disaster aid.
