The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) is a federal law enacted in 1995 that aims to limit the number of unfunded mandates imposed by the federal government on state and local governments. This act requires federal agencies to assess the costs of mandates that exceed $50 million and to consider their impact on state and local budgets, thus fostering better federal-state-local fiscal relationships by encouraging a more balanced approach to funding and responsibility.
