National Weather Service Duties Act of 2005



The National Weather Service Duties Act of 2005 was a legislative proposal forwarded in April of 2005 by now former United States Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) to curtail government competition with commercial weather services from the National Weather Service. Though the wording of the bill was generally considered unclear, the general consensus among observers was that its effect would be to eliminate public dissemination of National Weather Service data and forecasts except in case of severe weather alerts.
