Natural Disaster Resilience and Recovery Accountability Act

Bill 118 hr 10134, also known as the Natural Disaster Resilience and Recovery Accountability Act, aims to improve the federal government's response to natural disasters by increasing transparency and accountability in the allocation of disaster relief funds. The bill was introduced in the House of Representatives on September 15, 2021.
