H.R. 4376 · 116th Congress
STORM Aid for Disasters Act
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 116th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.

Streamlining The Official Response and Monetary Aid for Disasters Act or the STORM Aid for Disasters Act
This bill requires any federal agency that sustained specified damage as a result of a presidentially-declared major disaster to submit to Congress and the Office of Management and Budget a report that describes the damage incurred, an estimate of the cost of such damage, and any effects to operations if the agency does not receive additional resources.
Specified damage is defined as
- damage to federal facilities and property;
- negative impacts on federal operations, including damage to equipment, loss of program support, and any other calculable costs, as well as costs necessary to resume operations; and
- loss of services, totaling a cost exceeding $500,000, that would have been provided by the agency but for the disaster.
The bill provides for expedited consideration of a bill making supplemental appropriations to agencies in response to such report.
