AI Summary
This bill would end FEMA’s Shelter and Services Program. It tells FEMA to stop funding any non-federal shelters or related work—like facility upgrades or construction—that help relieve overcrowding in short-term U.S. Customs and Border Protection holding sites. It also takes back any unspent money that had been set aside for this program in recent federal funding laws.
Key points:
- Who is affected: FEMA; cities, counties, and nonprofits that run shelters; communities receiving migrants; and people who rely on those shelters.
- What changes: FEMA must stop supporting sheltering and related activities tied to easing CBP overcrowding; any unspent funds for this program are canceled and returned.
- When: These changes would take effect once the bill becomes law (the text does not list a specific date).
