This bill would require NOAA to expand and modernize its Weather Radio system so more people can receive timely alerts about storms and other dangers. It also creates a “Weather Ready All Hazards” award program to recognize strong safety and preparedness efforts. The goal is to improve warning coverage and reliability during emergencies.

| Who is affected | What changes | When |
