The main purpose of this legislation, known as the Federal Emergency Management Continuity Act of 2025, is to ensure that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) can continue to provide disaster relief funding even when there is a lapse in government appropriations. This means that if the government temporarily runs out of money, FEMA will still be able to access and distribute funds to help communities affected by disasters. Key provisions of the law include the requirement for FEMA to keep obligating and disbursing funds from the Disaster Relief Fund during any funding lapse.
