HR 3777 United States House · 118th Congress

Disaster Assistance Fairness Act

The Disaster Assistance Fairness Act helps condominiums and housing cooperatives (types of residential common interest communities) access federal disaster aid more easily after major disasters. It requires the President to issue rules allowing debris removal from these communities when state or local officials determine the debris threatens safety, health, or economic recovery. The bill also expands federal funding to cover repairs of essential shared areas (like roofs, elevators, and electrical systems) in these communities, provided owners can document their share of costs. This change applies to disasters declared after the bill's enactment.
