FEMA Receipts š¤Ø
Itās time to bring some much-needed transparency to how FEMA is managing
disaster relief funds.
After Hurricane Helene and now Milton, Iāve made it clear: we need answers.
Despite FEMA runninglow on funds <[link removed]>,
weāre not seeing the accountability we should be. They keep throwing billions
aroundwithout showing us
<[link removed]>
where the money is actually going. In light of these dadgum travesties, we
need to pop the hood and take a real look insideājust like a mechanic
wouldābecause somethingās not right under there, and weāve got to fix it.
On top of that, Congress is all too comfortable not reading the bills they
vote on
<[link removed]>
. Letās face it: you canāt make informed decisions without actually knowing
whatās in the spending bills. Itās basic common sense, and itās high time our
legislators took the responsibility seriously. We owe it to the American people
to stop rubber-stamping bloated bills filled with wasteful spending.
Thatās why Iāve been pushing for funding to go directly to the states
<[link removed]>
, so local leaders can decide whatās best for their communities. Why should we
rely on bureaucrats in Washington when state governments know their needs
better than anyone?
So, hereās where I stand on the matter:
* FEMA Accountability: Every dollar FEMA spends must be accounted for, with
detailed receipts showing how disaster relief is truly helping our communities.
* Legislators Reading Bills: Congress needs to stop passing spending bills
without knowing whatās in them. No more blind votes.
* State-Controlled Funding: States should have the power to allocate disaster
relief funds as they see fit, not Washington bureaucrats.
Iām here to represent you, and I wonāt stand by while Washington keeps wasting
your hard-earned money. Itās time for real accountability and common sense in
government.
