I don't think this bill is a good idea. It will give too much power to FEMA and could lead to abuse of authority. I don't trust the government to handle this responsibly. It's better to leave things as they are and not make any changes. This bill could have negative consequences for all of us.

This bill is useless. Did you know it includes provisions for mental health support for FEMA workers?
