Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) Swift Current is sponsored by Department of Homeland Security. The Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) Swift Current grant program makes federal funds available to states, U.S. territories, federally recognized tribal governments, and local governments to reduce or eliminate the risk of repetitive flood damage to buildings and structures insured under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) following a flood-related disaster event, and to enhance community flood resilience within NFIP-participating communities. It does so with a recognition of the growing flood hazards associated with climate change, anticipated growth of damage and repetitive losses due to flood, and of the need for flood hazard risk mitigation activities that promote climate adaptation, equity, and resilience with respect to flooding. These include both acute, extreme weather events as well as chronic stressors that have been observed and are expected to increase in the future.
Objectives The purpose of FMA Swift Current is to reduce or eliminate the flood risk of repetitive flood damage to structures and buildings insured by the NFIP following a flood-related disaster event, and to enhance community flood resilience within NFIP-participating communities.

Each applicant’s designated agency may submit only one FMA grant application to FEMA. Eligibility criteria The applicant meets the FMA Swift Current activation criteria when: 1. The applicant receives a major disaster declaration for a flood-related disaster event between June 1, 2024, and the disaster declaration deadline of May 31, 2025. A flood-related disaster event includes coastal storms, hurricanes, remnants of hurricanes, and floods; and, 2. The applicant meets at least one of the three conditions or the special consideration: • The applicant has at least $1 million in prior NFIP flood insurance claims in the twelve months prior to the disaster declaration date; OR • The applicant has 500 or more NFIP flood insurance claims in the declared flood-related disaster event; OR • The applicant is a U.S. territory or a federally recognized tribal government applying directly to FEMA. • Special Consideration: If the applicant receives a major disaster declaration for a flood-related disaster event between June 1, 2024, and May 31, 2025, but does not meet any of the three additional conditions listed above, the applicant may submit a request to their FEMA Regional Administrator (RA) for special consideration for FMA Swift Current within 30 days of the declared disaster. The applicant may submit a request to their FEMA RA by contacting the Regional Office contact listed at https://www.fema.gov/fema-regional-contacts. By submitting a request for special consideration for FMA Swift Current, the applicant certifies that they have not been awarded FMA funding since FY 2019 FMA and that any FMA Swift Current funding will align with the applicant's SRL, RL and SD plans and strategies. The FEMA Regional Administrator will review requests to confirm that the applicant and circumstance aligns with the Region’s flood mitigation goals and will forward their recommendation to the FEMA Administrator for approval.

If the subapplicant does not comply with this requirement, FEMA may take one or more actions as remedies for noncompliance, as appropriate. This could include disallowing all of the cost, part of the cost of the activity, or the action not in compliance. For additional details on NFIP requirements, see Title 44 of the Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.) § 77.6.

The Department of Defense FY2026 Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) provides funding for U.S. universities to acquire research equipment and instrumentation in areas important to national defense, including AI and machine learning hardware. The program is administered jointly by the Army Research Office (ARO), Office of Naval Research (ONR), and Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), with approximately $34 million available and 95 awards anticipated. DURIP funds the acquisition of specialized computing hardware for AI/ML research (GPU clusters, TPUs, neuromorphic processors), robotics and autonomous systems testbeds, sensor arrays and data collection systems for machine learning training, high-performance computing infrastructure for defense-relevant AI research, and laboratory equipment for human-AI interaction studies. The program specifically supports equipment that enhances research-related education in DoD-priority disciplines. While general-purpose computing is not eligible, computing equipment directly supporting DoD-relevant AI research programs qualifies. No cost sharing is required.

FEMA's FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program makes more than $1 billion available for terrorism prevention and preparedness — but for the first time ties eligibility to election-security measures: hand-marked paper ballots, 5% post-election audits, and citizenship verification through the SAVE system within 120 days. Local-government groups are calling it federal overreach that could divert 20% of state grants from bomb squads and active-shooter readiness. Applications are due July 24, 2026. This is the full breakdown of the conditions, the money at stake, the controversy, and how state and local applicants should navigate it.
Read articleThe FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program puts more than $1 billion across three programs — State Homeland Security Program, Urban Area Security Initiative ($584M across 44 cities), and Operation Stonegarden — with a July 24, 2026 deadline. But the money comes fenced: 30% to National Priority Areas, 35% to law-enforcement terrorism prevention, plus new 10% border and 3% election minimums. Here is how the spending mandates actually stack, who is eligible, and how to build an Investment Justification that survives them.
