These bills modernize emergency response systems and provide tribal governments with critical resources to respond to disasters.\n\n\u201cThese bills are about keeping communities safe, empowering first responders, and ensuring people get timely alerts and support during emergencies,\u201d said Davids. \u201cIn Kansas, where tornadoes, wildfires, and severe storms can strike with little warning, having modern alert systems and strong support for emergency responders isn\u2019t just important \u2014 it\u2019s essential for protecting lives and property.\u201d\n\nThe WARN Act would modernize the nation\u2019s emergency alert systems. It would ensure that federal, state, and local authorities can send timely, reliable alerts during natural disasters, severe weather, or other emergencies \u2014 helping communities respond quickly and save lives.\n\nThe second bill would authorize the President to provide fire management assistance directly to Indian Tribal Governments. This ensures tribal nations have the federal support necessary to respond effectively to wildfires and other emergencies, protecting both people and property.\n\nAs a member of the House T&I Committee, Davids has championed pragmatic, bipartisan solutions to improve infrastructure, emergency management, and public safety nationwide. Today\u2019s committee action underscores her commitment to delivering results for local communities, tribal nations, and first responders.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T15:07:37Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://davids.house.gov/media/press-releases/davids-bipartisan-emergency-response-bills-advance-out-ti-committee"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.3346699997782707, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
