Posts - Bill - HR 5002 Protect Americans from Climate Disasters Act
house 08/19/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to restore NOAA’s full staffing and programs so communities have the best possible forecasts, alerts, and data to prepare for extreme weather and reduce disaster impacts. This legislation aims to reverse recent cuts that have weakened our ability to respond to climate-related emergencies.
