GovInfo lists H.R. 9760 as the introduced House version, with last action on July 16, 2026: Peters and Salazar introduced the bill and it was referred to the House Armed Services, Foreign Affairs, and Intelligence committees. The full title is to require the Federal Government to produce a national resilience strategy.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The latest official bill record found in the lookback check shows a renewed concrete legislative attempt in the 119th Congress, but only introduction and committee referral, not enactment or creation of the strategy.

Salazar's official media page says she reintroduced, alongside Scott Peters, Chris Coons, and Lisa Murkowski, the bipartisan, bicameral NCARS Act to strengthen preparedness for hurricanes, flooding, wildfires, and other natural hazards threatening communities, critical infrastructure, public safety, and national security.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Salazar publicly renewed the same resilience-strategy effort in federal office, including hazards central to the promise, but the release describes proposed legislation rather than a delivered national strategy.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial. same_term A for effort

Salazar made a concrete federal effort by introducing and later reintroducing the NCARS Act with Rep. Peters and Senators Coons and Murkowski to require a national resilience strategy addressing hazards including hurricanes, flooding, and other natural hazards. However, the bill records show only introduction and committee referral, not enactment. A White House National Resilience Strategy was released in June 2026 while Salazar was still in office, but it appears to be an executive-branch strategy not clearly enacted through her legislation, not clearly attributable to her work, and not as specifically focused on coastal communities, storm surge, and sea-level rise as promised. That supports partial credit for serious advancement, but not full delivery.

Salazar materially pursued the promise by sponsoring H.R.6311, the National Coordination on Adaptation and Resilience for Security Act of 2023, which would require a federal national adaptation and resilience strategy. However, the bill remained only introduced/referred in the 118th Congress, and the Senate companion also did not advance to enactment. The promised national resilience strategy was therefore not created during the relevant federal office context, though the serious legislative attempt warrants an effort badge.
