Officially: Federal Disaster Assistance Coordination Act
This bill mainly requires plans, a public website, and a combined report to Congress about disaster-assistance data and early damage assessments. It aims to cut duplicate paperwork and speed up early damage checks, but it does not directly change who qualifies for aid or how much aid is available.
