house 02/11/2025 - 119th Congress
We are introducing the Safe Shelters Act of 2025 to ensure the safety of emergency shelters by prohibiting certain sex offenders from entering undesignated shelters during disasters. Our goal is to have FEMA designate specific shelters for these individuals, balancing the needs for both public safety and accommodation during emergencies.
