S 444 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Federal Emergency Mobilization Accountability (FEMA) Workforce Planning Act

This bill requires the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to create and update a detailed workforce planning document every three years. The plan must analyze staffing gaps, critical skills needs, retirement trends, and recruitment strategies for mission-critical roles, while including performance metrics and cost projections. FEMA must submit these plans to Congress, and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) will review them for compliance. The bill does not authorize new funding and focuses solely on improving FEMA’s internal workforce management processes.
