FEMA may struggle to assist Florida because Secretary Mayorkas claims they are out of funds. $640 million meant for housing assistance was used to house migrants in hotels. The Department of Homeland Security's inspector general identified over $7 billion in unspent cash from old grants. These grants, from storms as far back as 16 years ago, have passed their deadlines, but CEVA keeps extending them. The inspector general suggests reallocating these funds back into the disaster fund, which could provide sufficient money for current needs in Florida and Appalachia. While a supplemental bill to fund FEMA is acceptable, it shouldn't become a "Christmas tree" with unrelated attachments; funding should be considered as single-subject legislation.

Western North Carolina residents desperately need help, and it's local citizens who are stepping up, driving across the state to assist. The situation is dire. Misinformation is hindering aid efforts, particularly the false claim that aid is going to undocumented migrants; FEMA denies this. Taxpayer money is being spent on housing migrants in luxury hotels in New York City, funds that could be redirected for immediate relief in North Carolina. We need to address the current crisis first. There are separate funding streams for different needs, but the current situation demands immediate attention and a focus on those directly affected by the disaster.

FEMA is denying my reports that over a billion dollars intended for disaster relief is being diverted to address the current immigration situation. They call it a rumor and a lie. However, my source is FEMA's own website and press releases. They've publicly boasted about using this money for immigration purposes for years. Now, they claim they have enough money for disaster response, contradicting DHS Secretary Mayorkas who stated they lack sufficient funds for hurricane season. They’re hoping no one will fact-check their conflicting statements. I have archived their statements in case they remove them from their website. This money, meant for American citizens in need, is being redirected.

President Biden requested $98 billion in emergency funding for recent natural disasters, Hurricanes Helene and Milton. These storms caused over 200 deaths and extensive damage. FEMA's disaster relief fund has only $5 billion remaining. Without additional funding, FEMA will soon be limited to immediate needs, impacting rebuilding efforts in affected communities, particularly smaller and rural ones. FEMA has already provided over $1.6 billion in individual assistance and $1.3 billion in public assistance to nearly a million households. Helene and Milton's recovery costs are projected to exceed $50 billion each and will span years, surpassing all previous disasters this decade except Hurricane Maria.

FEMA states they are prepared for disasters like hurricanes, wildfires, and extreme heat, while emphasizing the importance of community preparedness. Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is raising concerns about FEMA's funding in the wake of Hurricane Hilleen.

This announcement follows reports that the Biden-Harris administration allocated over $1 billion from a FEMA program to services for migrants.

Biden has committed to a 180-day, 100% match on recovery funds, raising questions about how this can be guaranteed with only 10 days left in his administration. This practice is common among administrations to address immediate needs after major disasters. The president has the legal authority to allocate these funds for recovery efforts. It's important to recognize the catastrophic impact on affected communities and ensure that the federal government does everything possible to support their recovery journey.

A list shows cities, states, and NGOs receiving $1 billion from FEMA to house illegal aliens, funded by American taxpayers. It's unacceptable to spend this money on migrants while Americans in North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida remain homeless and without support. Congress is changing direction to prioritize American citizens over migrants, as this situation is viewed as a failure to the American people. Many are outraged that their tax dollars are used to assist those who have entered the country illegally, while Americans suffer. This misallocation of resources is seen as a significant failure, and there are serious consequences for the American public due to border issues. We cannot allow this to continue.

We're talking about $2.3 billion saved, but where's the proof? You won't be satisfied until you see the 10,000 pages of evidence. Specifics are needed. If we have to go to Congress, we will show where the money is going. Some details have emerged, like the $59 million spent on luxury hotels, but that was FEMA money abused for migrants. I'm not saying it's okay, don't put words in my mouth. The portrayal isn't factually accurate. I saw what FEMA does, I believe it. These are congressionally appropriate funds.

Lawmakers are debating the federal response to Hurricane Helene as Hurricane Milton approaches Florida. Some Republicans claim FEMA has failed in its core mission and that the administration was unprepared for the disaster. They allege DHS is prioritizing the resettlement of illegal immigrants over disaster relief, and that the administration can find money for its priorities, like student loan payoffs, but not for disaster aid. Representative Nancy Mace has proposed a bill to halt aid to migrants. The administration denies that immigration is draining disaster relief funds, calling such claims "plain false" and "dangerous rhetoric." Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to call lawmakers back to Washington to address the disasters until after the election next month.

FEMA is refuting reports that they are diverting disaster relief funds to address the "illegal invasion" occurring in the country, labeling it a rumor and denying any money is being taken from disaster response. The speaker claims their reporting is based on FEMA's own press releases, where they have been "bragging" about allocating funds to "invaders" for years. The speaker says that FEMA is now denying this because they need more money from Congress. The speaker suggests FEMA is calling the report a lie and a conspiracy theory. According to the speaker, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas stated they may not have enough money to get through hurricane season. The speaker claims FEMA is also denying being broke, asserting they have sufficient funds for immediate response and recovery needs.
