Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas emphasized that FEMA is currently able to meet immediate disaster needs but lacks adequate funding for the remainder of hurricane season.
Mayorkas warned that while FEMA is addressing urgent issues now, the agency faces looming financial hardships as hurricane season continues, necessitating additional Congressional support.
A letter from a bipartisan group of Senators stressed the urgency for Congress to take action to secure the necessary funding for disaster recovery and support recovery efforts.
As Congress remains focused on upcoming elections, the urgency of addressing FEMA's funding is evident, impacting disaster response timelines during a critical recovery period.
