[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DeWine has been sitting on his ass not calling Biden back. He just got around to requesting help today. [/quote] [twitter]https://twitter.com/themarketswork/status/1626352523002155009[/twitter] The Biden administration turned down a request for federal disaster assistance from Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine in the aftermath of the train derailment in the state earlier this month that led to a large release of toxic chemicals. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) told Ohio's state government that it was not eligible for disaster assistance to help the community recover from the toxic spill, Dan Tierney, a spokesperson for DeWine, told Fox News Digital on Thursday. Tierney explained that FEMA believed the incident didn't qualify as a traditional disaster, such as a tornado or hurricane, for which it usually provides assistance. "The DeWine Administration has been in daily contact with FEMA to discuss the need for federal support, however FEMA continues to tell Governor DeWine that Ohio is not eligible for assistance at this time," DeWine's office said in a statement earlier in the day. "Governor DeWine will continue working with FEMA to determine what assistance can be provided."[/quote] It’s called “the law” but we all know that is a foreign concept to partisan trolls.[/quote] Yes, Norfolk Southern is supposed to pay for relief and recovery, not FEMA. Just like BP, not the government, was responsible for paying for the Deepwater Horizon spill. [/quote] Meanwhile, sit back and relax? Good thing none of your family lives there.[/quote] It’s the law. EPA is doing its job. NTSB is doing its job. But for major environmental incident the corporate polluter has to be required to pay for the relief and compensation. [/quote] That takes years, Einstein. That’s why we pay FEMA to immediately jump in.[/quote]
