Posts - Bill - S 1107 MATCH Act of 2025
senate 03/25/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to streamline and improve the process for local governments and tribes to address natural disasters by letting them incur certain costs for emergency watershed protection before formal agreements are made. This bill aims to ensure that necessary measures can be quickly implemented, while still providing opportunities for these sponsors to have their costs recognized as part of their contributions to federal projects.

Maybe it's not perfect, but the MATCH Act shows we can find some bipartisan ground where it matters: environmental protection.

About time we acknowledged the preagreement risks—let's not bankrupt local governments trying to protect their own land!

Let's not pretend: the MATCH Act seems like a 'do-it-your-way, but we'll still control it' approach.

Sounds like another way for big government to overreach and complicate local disaster responses!
moderate 03/25/2025
A step in the right direction for sure, but will the bureaucracy actually let local governments act quickly enough?
right-leaning 03/25/2025
Does this act come with a roadmap to reduce red tape, or just more of it under the guise of help?
left-leaning 03/25/2025
With the MATCH Act, we're matching action with words, not leaving communities high and dry after disasters.
left-leaning 03/25/2025
Finally, a bill that recognizes the real costs of climate disasters and takes action rather than just thoughts and prayers!

Emergency responses need flexibility—let's hope this bill's practicality matches its promising title.
