Continuance of the Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council
Extends the Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council's existence until March 25, 2026, and assigns the Secretary of Homeland Security to carry out the President's advisory-committee functions for the council.
What this order does
What it orders
The order continues the Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council — originally created by Executive Order 14180 on January 24, 2025 — until March 25, 2026. Without this extension, the council would have lapsed under the Federal Advisory Committee Act's standard expiration rules.
The order also delegates to the Secretary of Homeland Security the President's administrative functions under the Federal Advisory Committee Act as they apply to this council, to be carried out according to General Services Administration regulations and guidelines. No new policy directives, mandates, or program changes are established.
Who it affects
The Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council and its members, the Secretary of Homeland Security who assumes the President's advisory-committee oversight functions, and the Department of Homeland Security, which must bear the publication costs for this order.
Why it matters
Without this continuance, the FEMA Review Council would have expired, ending its ongoing assessment work. The extension gives the council roughly two additional months to complete its review before it must either be renewed again or formally dissolved.
