Law

Very unlikely to pass

Most bills introduced late in a session that are only sent to a committee never become law without a major push from leadership.

Key Points

This bill requires the Department of Housing and Urban Development to use existing federal data to track damage after a major disaster. It focuses on finding where housing and infrastructure are broken and where affordable homes are missing.
The agency would have to start these assessments within 60 days of a disaster being declared. After the first check, they would need to update their findings every three months to keep Congress informed.
Right now, figuring out how much money a community needs after a hurricane or fire can take a long time. This plan aims to use technology and data to identify those needs faster so help can arrive sooner.
This would help people living in disaster zones by making sure the government has a clear picture of what is still broken. It helps Congress decide how much disaster recovery money to send to specific areas.
