The Trump administration has raised concerns about organizations and local governments that have received federal FEMA grants, suggesting they may have violated human smuggling laws by assisting immigrants. A letter from FEMA requests these entities to provide information on immigrants they have helped and to affirm that they have no knowledge of any legal violations. Consequently, future aid may be contingent upon compliance as the DHS conducts a thorough review.
This intervention comes amid 'significant concerns' that some organizations may be violating immigration laws by assisting immigrants, prompting the federal government to reevaluate aid.
The letter signed by FEMA's acting administrator specifies that organizations must now confirm knowledge of compliance with federal immigration laws to continue receiving grants.
