Disaster Zone Energy Affordability and Investment Act

# Disaster Zone Energy Affordability and Investment Act (S 3605) **What the Bill Does** This bill, sponsored by Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, aims to help communities recover from natural disasters by addressing energy costs and infrastructure in disaster-affected areas. While specific provisions aren't detailed in the available information, the bill's title suggests it would focus on making energy more affordable for people in areas recovering from disasters and encouraging investment in rebuilding energy infrastructure in those zones. **Who It Affects** The bill would primarily affect residents and businesses in areas declared as disaster zones, as well as energy providers and investors in those regions.

Communities recovering from hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, or other major disasters could benefit from affordability measures and infrastructure improvements. **Current Status** As of now, the bill remains in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full Senate. This means it's still in the early stages of the legislative process and would need committee approval before moving forward for a broader vote. --- *Note: More detailed information about specific provisions would require access to the bill's full text.*.
