Measuring the Cost of Disasters Act of 2025

This bill would require the head of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to create and keep a public database and webpage listing each disaster in the United States that costs $1 billion or more. For each disaster, it would list the estimated cost, type, location, and dates. The webpage would include graphs and maps similar to those NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information posted online from 1980 through 2024 until May 9, 2025. NOAA would have to update the database at least twice a year and keep the earlier disaster database available for archiving and research.
