Guaranteed Disaster Assistance Act
The Guaranteed Disaster Assistance Act requires the President to implement hazard mitigation measures during disaster responses. This change directly affects federal disaster relief operations by making mitigation a mandatory step rather than an optional one. The bill amends the existing Stafford Act to replace the President's discretion with a strict obligation to include these safety measures.
