Speaker Blas certified an emergency condition and scheduled an emergency session for July 2 at 6:00 p.m. to consider Bill 339‑38 COR, which would reallocate unexpended Typhoon Sinlaku funds to Maga'haga Guam for emergency response to Tropical Depression 09W (Bonnie).

The Guam Legislature passed Bill 339‑38 LS on July 2, 2026, to reallocate unexpended funds from the Typhoon Slaku appropriation to immediate pre‑landfall emergency operations for Tropical Depression 09W ("Bobby"). Amendments increase per‑mayor and school shelter payments, add reporting and reversion language, and require accounting to the public auditor.

BBMR Director Lester Carlson told the Committee of the Whole the $25 million general‑fund request would allow proactive pre‑storm response (rentals, heavy equipment, mayoral assistance, shelter readiness) and post‑storm recovery if needed; senators pressed for a breakdown between response and recovery, stronger reporting requirements, and alternatives such as tapping the rainy‑day fund.
