Sovereign States Emergency Management Act

HR 3347, the Sovereign States Emergency Management Act, ends the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and transfers its disaster response functions to the President within two years of enactment. It creates a new federal grant program where the Treasury Department allocates disaster relief funds directly to states based on population, historical disaster data, geographic risks, and economic need. States must submit annual emergency management plans and reports detailing fund use and outcomes, and cannot receive duplicate federal aid for the same purposes. The program would operate for four years, ending in 2028, with states retaining full control over how funds are spent for preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation.
