Posts - Bill - HR 5326 FLAME Act
house 09/11/2025 - 119th Congress
We aim to ensure transparency and accountability when canceling or delaying large-scale training programs at the National Fire Academy by requiring advance notice to Congress and reimbursement for affected fire departments. This helps maintain critical firefighter education while minimizing disruptions to emergency preparedness.

Streamlining training pauses is fine, as long as it doesn’t turn into a permanent fire drill.
