Chapter four of the textbook describes the
beginning of congressional legislation with the Federal Disaster Relief Act of
1950 and continues through the 1960s and 1970s. In each decade, the focusing events
are identified, as well as mobilization, agenda-setting, and the subsequent
congressional legislation.
Choose a decade (1950s, 1960s, or 1970s).
Identify and discuss the focusing events that caused mobilization, agenda
setting, legislative actions, and the notable outcome that changed emergency
management. Research additional information about the focusing event and/or the
resulting congressional legislation.
Present the findings in a PowerPoint
Presentation with a minimum of 12 slides, including the title slide and the
