Priority: Save Taxpayer Money Locally

The order directs that State, local, and individual preparedness should be the primary way to protect communities so taxpayers benefit from smarter, local choices. It explicitly says this approach will reduce taxpayer burdens and save taxpayer money by making preparedness a local priority with federal support.

National Risk Register to Guide Investments

Within 240 days of the order (signed March 18, 2025) the Administration will develop a National Risk Register that identifies and quantifies risks to infrastructure. The order states the Register's quantification shall be used to inform the Intelligence Community, private sector investments, State investments, and Federal budget priorities.

National Resilience Strategy Deadline

The Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs must publish a National Resilience Strategy within 90 days of the order (signed March 18, 2025) and that strategy must be reviewed and revised at least every 4 years. The strategy will articulate priorities and means to advance national resilience and guide subsequent policy reviews.
