During floor debate on H.R. 153, the sponsor stated that the bill would increase transparency for post-disaster federal assistance and that the legislation had previously passed the House in the 116th, 117th, and 118th Congresses; Mr. Ezell was thanked for his leadership on the legislation.

The Congressional Record shows Ezell actively championing FEMA-disaster-assistance legislation aimed at making the system more transparent and efficient.

Ezell and Rep. Salud Carbajal introduced H.R. 3177, the Keep It In The State Act, which the office said would improve the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of federally funded disaster recovery efforts and prioritize local expertise.

Ezell introduced a new FEMA-reform bill in 2025, which is concrete evidence of continued action toward making FEMA-related disaster recovery more efficient.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Ezell took concrete same-term actions toward FEMA reform, including helping advance H.R. 152 and H.R. 153 through the House and introducing H.R. 3177, the Keep It In The State Act, aimed at improving disaster recovery efficiency and use of local expertise. However, the evidence does not show that FEMA was actually reorganized or that a final enacted reform delivered the full promised outcome, so the promise is best scored as partial rather than delivered.
