Weatherization Resilience and Adaptation Program Act

This bill establishes a federal grant program to help low-income homeowners and affordable housing owners adapt properties to climate-driven hazards like flooding and wildfires. It authorizes $250 million annually (2026-2031) for states, tribes, and Native Hawaiian organizations to fund resilience projects for eligible property owners, defined as those at or below 300% of the federal poverty level in high-risk areas. Key provisions require grants to cover natural solutions (e.g., ecological landscaping), prohibit rent increases for two years on funded properties, and mandate resident relocation protections for multifamily buildings. The program mandates adherence to federally developed resilience standards and includes reporting requirements to ensure funds are used effectively. It directly affects vulnerable households in climate-threatened communities who cannot afford property adaptations on their own.
