Arkansas FAFO

[IM2]

Sarah Sanders supported Trump. The state of Arkansas voted Trump in 2020. And what did they get back? Relief for tornadoes and floods denied.

FAFO!

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is asking a federal agency to reverse its decision about storm victims in the state.

The governor’s office said in a Friday statement that Sanders is appealing to FEMA to reverse its decision to deny the Arkansas Major Disaster Declaration for individual and public assistance. The declaration was for the storms and tornadoes that crossed the state on March 14 and 15.

The governor’s office statement said the following counties are in the original request: Baxter, Stone/Sharp, Hempstead, Independence/Randolph, Sharp/Randolph, Nevada, Independence/Jackson, Randolph/Clay, Woodruff, Clay, and Greene counties.

“Arkansas communities are still recovering from this spring’s tornadoes, as the sheer magnitude of this event resulted in overwhelming amounts of debris, widespread destruction to homes and businesses, the tragic loss of three lives, and injuries to many others,” The governor said. “To relieve the burden on these counties, cities, and towns, I am appealing FEMA’s decision to deny Arkansas’ Major Disaster Declaration request.

All states need to be productive enough to take care of their own. This is also a good reason to donate to Samaritan's Purse and other organizations that provide relief.
Aside from that, your OP is garbage. Trump was on it in 3 short days. What was denied was individual assistance and public assistance, both of which should be covered by insurance.

To get the most she can, like any good governor. I'm sure Trump will make sure Arkansas is taken care of.
