To amend the National Security Act of 1947 to require the Federal Government to produce a national resilience strategy, and for other purposes.
Key claim: HR9760 would amend the National Security Act of 1947 to require the Federal Government to produce a national resilience strategy.
Abstract
(HR9760 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-16): 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.
Why this matters
A statutory National Resilience Strategy would create a new recurring planning product under the National Security Act, potentially institutionalizing cross-agency coordination on continuity, critical infrastructure, and hazard preparedness. Practical implications include new reporting workload for the executive branch and a codified framework Congress can use to oversee resilience investments, though fiscal impact depends on whether the strategy is paired with dedicated appropriations.
