FEMA Workforce Planning Act (Federal Emergency Mobilization Accountability)

Current understanding

The Federal Emergency Mobilization Accountability (FEMA) Workforce Planning Act would require FEMA to submit a workforce plan to Congress every three years addressing staffing gaps, training needs, and the Surge Capacity Force, with GAO reviewing whether each plan satisfies the statutory requirements. For FEMA employees and the Surge Capacity Force, the bill creates a recurring, auditable planning cycle rather than altering pay, benefits, or classification. Status: introduced.
