Bill overview
This bill, the No Delays in Disaster Relief Act, aims to ensure a quicker response to disasters by establishing a process for appointing Acting Regional Administrators at FEMA when a permanent Regional Administrator position is vacant for 90 days or more. These Acting Regional Administrators would have the authority to make key decisions regarding disaster relief funding and grant assistance. The bill requires FEMA to report to Congress on the implementation of this process and its impact on disaster response efficiency.
