I will sign an order to reform the disaster management agency or perhaps cancel it
This comes at a time when Trump wants to control the distribution of federal assistance, in the event of natural disasters.
The Federal Disaster Management Agency in America
The Republican President said during his visit to North Carolina:
Trump threatened to stop the help of California, the state -affiliated state in the process of fighting fires in Los Angeles.
Trump has been targeting for months of the aforementioned agency. During his first term (2017-2021), he confirmed that she was “working in a sound form.”
Federal aid in Los Angeles
During his last election campaign, Trump criticized his predecessor Joe Biden and the Disaster Management Agency.
He accused them of ignoring disapproval areas that hit Hurricane Helen in North Carolina just because she voted for the Republicans, but Trump did not provide any evidence of the validity of his accusations.
Recently, he vowed to stop federal aid to address fires in Los Angeles, on the pretext that California stopped the arrival of the amounts of water necessary for fire control systems, which experts were keen to deny.
