Bill overview
This bill, the Extreme Heat Emergency Act of 2025, aims to expand the criteria for declaring a major disaster. It amends the Stafford Disaster Relief Act to include ‘extreme temperature’ as a factor when determining if a disaster has occurred. This means that if an area experiences dangerously high temperatures, it could qualify for federal disaster assistance. Importantly, the bill does not authorize any new funding for these potential disasters.
