What does that bill mean? I can't cut through the political double speak.
It's kind of boring, really. It just provides a revolving loan account for states to draw from to fund disaster or hazard mitigation. Maybe that's building a taller levee in New Orleans or maybe it's deploying fire watcher drones in California. Really, things like that. It does mention Homeland Security in the bill, but it seems to be mainly interested in protecting ports and other economic centers like that.
