More FEMA help for security grants
If enacted, FEMA would give ongoing outreach, training, and technical help before, during, and after awards for two security grants. This would cover the Urban Area Security Initiative and the State Homeland Security Grant Program. FEMA would run yearly surveys of State, local, Tribal, and territorial partners, publish summaries, and explain how feedback shaped future funding notices. The Comptroller General would review these efforts within 2 years, and FEMA would report to Congress within 3 years. It would not change who can get grants or set new funding.
