    The President has issued an Executive Order to create a Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council aimed at assessing and improving FEMA's response to disasters. This council will consist of up to 20 members, including government officials and experts, to evaluate FEMA's effectiveness and suggest improvements. The council's tasks include comparing FEMA's previous disaster responses with those of other entities, analyzing debate on FEMA's role, and recommending reforms. The council will seek public input and produce a report to the President within 180 days from its first public meeting.

    Simple Explanation

    The President wants to check and improve how FEMA helps during disasters, so they're making a special team of up to 20 people to look at how well FEMA is doing and find ways to make it better. The team will listen to people's ideas and tell the President what they find out in a report.
