S. 388

Promoting Resilient Buildings Act

Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee · Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX)

15 September 2026 | Reported by committee (Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, with an amendment in the nature of a substitute, without written report)

What's next: Floor scheduling (leadership decides if and when it gets a vote)

Summary: The bill would make it easier for federal disaster relief funds to support building code improvements by allowing use of either the current or previous edition of building codes. It would prohibit a federal loan program from funding building code activities and establish a new pilot program through 2030 to provide grants for homeowners to retrofit their residences against natural hazards, prioritizing those with financial need.
