Referred to the Committee on Armed Services, and in addition to the Committees on Foreign Affairs, and Intelligence (Permanent Select), for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill creates a new Chief Resilience Officer position within the National Security Council to lead federal efforts in building national resilience against natural hazards and climate-related threats to national security. The officer will oversee a 24-member Partners Council including state, local, tribal, and private sector representatives, and must develop a comprehensive National Resilience Strategy within two years that identifies vulnerabilities, funding gaps, and recommendations for supporting communities—particularly rural and underresourced areas—in adapting to environmental threats. The strategy will include agency implementation plans, public comment periods, and an information clearinghouse to share resilience data and technical assistance with state, local, tribal, and private partners. The Comptroller General will assess implementation progress every two years, and these requirements will automatically expire after 10 years or upon completion of the third assessment report, whichever comes first.
