senate 02/27/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to streamline disaster recovery efforts with the Disaster Management Costs Modernization Act, which aims to allow States, Indian Tribes, and Territories to use leftover funds from completed projects for the management of ongoing or future recovery initiatives. This change is designed to encourage the timely closure of projects and more efficient use of resources in the face of disasters.

Finally, a bill that understands leftover funds should be put to good use. Disaster management deserves every dime!

Seems like a pragmatic approach to make sure no dollar goes to waste, especially during disasters.

Another layer of bureaucracy disguised as efficiency. Color me skeptical.

Incentivizing states to wisely use excess funds? Sounds like a win-win for efficiency and preparedness.

Encouraging states to be proactive with unused funds? Could be a smart move if managed well.

Excess funds should mean taxpayers are getting a refund, not more government spending!

Using excess funds for better disaster prep? It’s almost like caring for the environment and people makes sense!

Let’s see how efficiently this actually turns out in practice. Always in favor of less red tape!
