Passed House Re-checks Congress.gov for new actions and updates the bill's status, and fills in any sponsors, committees, or related bills that are missing. It does not re-pull sponsors/cosponsors/committees/related — those rarely change — and it skips all work if nothing has changed upstream, so it's cheap to click.

Enhancing Stakeholder Support and Outreach for Preparedness Grants Act

Introduced Jun 20, 2025

Latest action (Nov 20, 2025) Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.

Summary

This bill amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to require the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to enhance stakeholder outreach and support for two grant programs: the Urban Area Security Initiative and the State Homeland Security Grant Program. FEMA must conduct ongoing outreach, engagement, education, technical assistance, and support to State, local, Tribal, and territorial stakeholders before, during, and after awarding grants. The bill requires FEMA to conduct annual surveys to collect feedback from stakeholders on grant awarding and outreach effectiveness, and to provide summaries of survey results and how feedback was incorporated into future grant notices. The Comptroller General must review and report on the effectiveness of these outreach efforts within two years, and FEMA must report to Congress within three years on actions taken under these new requirements.
