Federal Emergency Management Agency Buy American Compliance Act

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 the Agency on a non-emergency basis for a construction project, that the project use only domestic products (products mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States). Provides authorized waivers of such requirement. Prohibits the application of the authorized waivers with respect to a product of a foreign country that is a signatory country to the Agreement on Government Procurement but that has violated such Agreement by discriminating against a covered U.S. product. Prohibits the Director from imposing any assistance limitation that restricts more stringent State Buy American requirements. Makes a person ineligible to enter into a contract or subcontract for a project carried out with financial assistance made available by the Agency if a U.S. court or agency has determined that such person has 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.
