Senator Ted Budd accused the Biden administration of misallocating $1 billion in emergency funding, suggesting it was redirected to immigrants rather than aiding hurricane recovery in North Carolina.
Budd noted that residents were frustrated with FEMA's response, citing bureaucratic delays and resources misallocated to immigrants, indicating that help was finally improving.
In contrast, Senator Thom Tillis dismissed claims of misallocation as conspiracy theories, affirming that immigration issues do not hinder relief resources in western North Carolina.
Tillis criticized the Biden administration's immigration policies while stating that current resources for hurricane recovery were adequate, highlighting his differing stance from Budd.
