Why do you oppose FEMA funding?

  What’s left of FEMA? Anyway their disaster response is not impacted by the lapse in funding. They’re currently on the ground doing something or other in Hawaii.

    This is completely incorrect. FEMA has ceased public assistance for ongoing and historical disasters.

      You should let FEMA and the state of Hawaii know then. They must be really fucking confused. Thanks 0xy for bringing the knowledge. https://www.khon2.com/kona-low/governor-green-kona-low/amp/ https://www.khon2.com/kona-low/governor-green-kona-low/amp/

        Did you read the post you replied to? I very clearly stated ongoing and historical disasters. Meaning disasters that started before the DHS shutdown and were still ongoing, not new disasters.

  FEMA does not and should not be a part of DHS. Good try though.

      I drop the word need there. But yes putting it as part of DHS was a mistake and mistakes can be fixed.
