Assignment:

You have been tasked with finding academic-based legal and social science research for creating a pre-disaster mitigation program that would not be subject to annual appropriations from Congress. The three issues you need to address from your research are:

(1) Does this Chicago event meet the criteria for the President to declare this "man-made catastrophe" an emergency disaster or a major disaster?

(2) Can FEMA and DHS make a good-faith argument that this Chicago event qualifies for pre-disaster mitigation funding or is recovery going to be limited to post-disaster mitigation funding?

(3) Should FEMA and DHS make recommendations to focus only on Stafford Act authorizations, or should the recommendation also include considerations for the President to declare a national emergency under the National Emergencies Act?
