It defines the "latest published editions" of building codes for the predisaster hazard mitigation program as the two most recent editions. It removes one paragraph from the rules of the hazard mitigation revolving loan fund program. It also creates a pilot program, running until September 30, 2030, that lets states and local governments give grants to individuals to retrofit their homes against disasters such as floods, tornadoes, earthquakes, wildfires, and high winds. The grants must go to people who show financial need.
