Acting HUD secretary Adrianne Todman stressed the urgent need for Congress to act on President Biden's request for $100 billion in disaster relief funding.
Todman noted the current crisis, stating that it takes up to four years for substantial housing to be rebuilt following disasters, calling it "far, far too long."
She emphasized the importance of codifying and authorizing HUD's disaster recovery program to ensure it effectively supports Americans in repeated emergencies.
With a new administration promising budget cuts, Todman and other officials warned about the potential impacts on disaster funding and recovery efforts.
