Summary

Federal Emergency Management Agency Buy American Compliance Act - Requires the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency to require, as a condition of any financial assistance provided by such agency on a non-emergency basis for a construction project, that the steel, iron, and manufactured products used in the project be produced in the United States. Provides authorized waivers of such requirement. Makes a person ineligible for any such assistance if such person has intentionally affixed a "Made in America" label to any product used in such a project, or otherwise has represented that a product was produced in the United States, when it was not. Prohibits the application of the authorized waivers with respect to the products of a foreign country that has violated the terms of a valid trade agreement by discriminating in such country against products produced in the United States.
