Housing Survivors of Major Disasters Act of 2026
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
Summary
The bill lets individuals and households who lived in a major disaster area but do not have documented ownership or a lease receive federal disaster aid, including funds to obtain title and repair damaged homes. It creates a simple self‑certification form and expands the types of proof that can be used to show constructive ownership, helping people displaced by events like Hurricane Maria. The measure also updates the Stafford Act language to focus on homes damaged by disasters.
