Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC.), Rep. Troy A. Carter Sr. (D-La.), Rep. Carlos A. Gimenez (R-Fl.), and Rep. Joe Neguse (D-Co.) announced the formation of the Bipartisan Congressional Disaster Preparedness and Recovery Caucus. This caucus says they are committed to working across the aisle to advance legislation and policies that provide efficient, equitable relief for disaster survivors and promotes measures that pave the path for impacted communities to make a full recovery.
The caucus will also advocate for disaster preparedness measures and programs that help save lives while readying America's communities for the disasters ahead.
“In a coastal district like mine, natural disasters are an inevitable part of life,” said Nancy Mace. “As coastal areas face increased risks from flooding and sea level rise, we must take preemptive steps to prepare and protect our most vulnerable communities. This caucus will serve as an important bipartisan platform to ensure our nation is prepared for and able to recover from natural disasters whenever and wherever they strike.”
