Summary
Senate Bill 1031 aims to amend the Emergency Management Act of 1976 by introducing several key provisions for enhancing disaster response capabilities at both state and local levels. This bill specifically creates the Michigan Safeguarding Tomorrow Revolving Loan Fund, intended to support financial resources for planning, mitigation, response, and recovery from both natural and human-made disasters.

Contention
