What the document says
“The Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency shall post an interactive dashboard on the public-facing website of the Federal Emergency Management Agency with any request for reimbursement for a covered expense, delineated by state”
Section 313(a). FEMA must publish an interactive dashboard on its public website showing requests for reimbursement of covered expenses, broken out by state and by whether the amount is individual assistance or public assistance under an emergency or major disaster declaration. A request must appear within 90 days of the agency receiving it and within 60 days of the department putting it under final review. Subsection (b) sets the minimum contents by reference to a paragraph in the explanatory statement.
What the document actually says
“The Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency shall post an interactive dashboard on the public-facing website of the Federal Emergency Management Agency with any request for reimbursement for a covered expense, delineated by state”
That sentence, in plain words
FEMA must put a live chart on its website. It shows who has asked to be paid back, state by state.
What this is about
After a disaster, states ask FEMA to pay them back. This shows those asks in the open. Each one must appear within 90 days.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
