Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The RIDER Act amends the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act to expand federal disaster assistance eligibility. It allows areas contiguous to federally designated disaster zones to receive the same assistance as the primary disaster area, even if those contiguous areas were not themselves declared disaster zones. The bill also redefines 'major disaster' to include cumulative damage from multiple natural catastrophes occurring within a 12-month period that individually fall below the threshold for assistance but collectively meet the severity standard.
