FEMA for America First Act of 2025

What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill changes who can get federal disaster help from FEMA and other agencies. Right now, non-U.S. citizens can get disaster assistance if they have certain legal statuses like being a refugee, asylee, parolee, or permanent resident. The bill would remove three groups from being eligible: people who were paroled into the U.S. for humanitarian reasons, asylees who haven't applied to become permanent residents, and refugees who haven't applied to become permanent residents.
