## Summary

**This bill would make predisaster hazard mitigation mandatory nationwide.** It would require the President to provide predisaster mitigation assistance and to carry out mitigation activities instead of leaving them discretionary. - Families and households in flood, heat, or storm-prone areas would get stronger federal support for projects like elevating or relocating structures, heat-risk measures, and hardening buildings. - Local governments and communities would face a predictable federal duty to deliver predisaster grants. The bill notes the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program began in 2019 and says $4 billion in grants were allegedly clawed back in 2025. - Federal response would change legal duties by converting two subsections of Section 203 of the Stafford Act from discretionary to mandatory. The bill cites that every $1 invested in predisaster mitigation can save up to $13 in recovery costs.
