Disaster Funding for 2017 - 2019 Hurricanes, California Wildfires and other Disasters

Over $139 billion in supplemental disaster funding was provided by Congress in response to disasters that occurred between 2017 and 2019. An additional $20.5 billion in no-year disaster appropriations to the FEMA Disaster Relief Fund (DRF) and the SBA Disaster Loans (DL) account, which was provided by the annual Consolidated Appropriations Acts of 2018 (P.L. 115-141) and 2019 (P.L. 116-6) to allow for rapid response to any presidential disaster declaration. Some disaster spending funded by non-supplemental mechanisms, such as the USDA Commodity Credit Corporation, the DOT Highway Trust Fund, or annual appropriations, is not included.
