What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill gives money to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to keep disaster relief programs running if the government shuts down in 2026. The money would pay for disaster response activities like helping people after major disasters and emergencies, paying essential FEMA workers involved in disaster work, and continuing existing disaster recovery projects. The funding would last until Congress passes a regular budget or until January 1, 2027, whichever comes first, and cannot be used for non-essential office work or non-disaster activities.
