The TRACK Act requires the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to create a public online dashboard that tracks federal disaster assistance in detail. For each major disaster the President declares, the dashboard would display information about federal grants to help communities recover, including damage categories, project descriptions and costs, approval status, timelines, and funding breakdowns between federal and local shares. The bill aims to give the public clear visibility into how disaster recovery money is being distributed and processed, including explanations if projects are delayed or grants are denied. The legislation affects communities receiving FEMA disaster assistance and applies to all major disaster declarations going forward. There is no specific funding amount or implementation deadline specified in the bill itself; FEMA would be responsible for building and maintaining the dashboard.
