TRACK Act

The TRACK Act requires FEMA to create an online public dashboard tracking federal disaster aid for every major disaster declared by the President. It directly affects disaster victims and communities receiving federal public assistance (like housing, debris removal, or infrastructure repairs) by making detailed funding information publicly accessible. The dashboard must display cost breakdowns (federal vs. non-federal share), project descriptions, approval timelines, reasons for denied requests, and real-time progress updates. This replaces vague reporting with specific, searchable data to improve transparency in how disaster funds are distributed and managed.
