Key Points

  • This bill would create a new group called the Climate Coordinating Council inside the Department of Homeland Security. The group would include at least 20 senior leaders from major agencies like FEMA, the Coast Guard, the TSA, and the Secret Service.
  • The council's main job is to figure out how changing weather patterns and rising sea levels might hurt the department's equipment, buildings, and staff. They will create plans to protect these resources so the department can keep doing its job during climate-related emergencies.
  • The group will also look at how the department spends its money and suggest changes to make sure there is enough funding for climate safety. They will have to send a report to Congress every year for the next 10 years to show what progress they are making.
