HSS Noem recently said she planned to eliminate FEMA. No notation on how and if aid would still go to areas hit by natural disasters.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said she planned to “eliminate” the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) during a televised Cabinet meeting Monday.
While giving a status report on border security, Noem added, “and we’re going to eliminate FEMA.” She did not elaborate.
“That’s great. Great job,” President Trump said — appearing to respond to her broader status update.
Trump has been highly critical of the emergency management agency, having suggested in the past that he would consider cutting it.
“I’ll also be signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA, or maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, FEMA’s not good,” Trump said in January.
