Overview
The CESA Legislative Committee monitors, reviews and on occasion takes a position on legislative and regulatory proposals that maximize local jurisdiction’s and private enterprise’s ability to effectively mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural and man-made disasters and public health emergencies, protecting both physical and fiscal health. Can meet monthly depending on legislative activities.
CESA will communicate support and/or concerns regarding legislation by assigning a status to each monitored bill for members. CESA takes five positions on monitored legislation: Watch, Support, Support with Amendments, Oppose Unless Amended, and Oppose. Occasionally, CESA will send representatives a Position Letter on legislation that will impact emergency management, find these Position Letters below.
