Trump officials making it harder to qualify for federal disaster assistance

[Anonymous]

Trump emergency management officials are discussing reforms that would make it much harder for communities to qualify for federal disaster assistance and shift more responsibility for disaster response and recovery to states. A memo from acting FEMA administrator Cameron Hamilton outlines a long list of recommendations that could drastically reduce the number of emergency declarations the president approves and the amount of federal assistance given to cities and states hit by natural disasters. Most notably, the proposal quadruples the amount of damage a community must suffer in order to receive federal aid. It also recommends reducing the share of recovery costs the federal government will pay, limiting the types of facilities eligible for assistance and denying all major disaster declarations for snowstorms.
