Lafayette, CO — Today, Congressman Joe Neguse, founder and Co-Chair of the Bipartisan Wildfire Caucus, is leading a bipartisan effort to streamline homeowners’ access to federal assistance after natural disasters. Neguse, who represents a congressional district that is no stranger to natural disasters, introduced two bills that would modernize how the Small Business Administration (SBA) distributes aid for homeowners: the Disaster Loan Interest Relief Act, co-led by Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ), and the Disaster Loan Application Flexibility Act, co-led by Rep.
Washington, D.C. — After public outrage swelled following Congressman Joe Neguse’s exposure of House Republicans’ last-minute move to force the sale of thousands of acres of public lands in Utah and Nevada, the amendment was stripped from the reconciliation bill. The provision at issue would have mandated the sale of 11,000 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land in Utah and at least 500,000 acres in Nevada, all to pay for tax cuts benefiting the country’s wealthiest citizens.
