Bill overview
The Wildfire Recovery Act aims to improve how the federal government assists communities recovering from wildfires. It increases the flexibility for the federal government to cover a larger portion of wildfire response costs, up to 75%, and allows for adjustments based on the severity of the disaster. The bill also updates FEMA policy to allow states, local governments, and tribal nations to be reimbursed for pre-positioning firefighting resources before a wildfire is declared, streamlining aid delivery. This legislation seeks to bolster wildfire recovery efforts by providing more adaptable and comprehensive financial support.
