Trump Signs Executive Order for FEMA Review Council After Hurricane Helene in North Carolina
Jan 26, 2025, 11:30 PM
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to establish a review council for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), following his visit to areas in western North Carolina devastated by Hurricane Helene last year. The move comes after Trump criticized FEMA's effectiveness during his visit, suggesting that disaster response should be managed by states with federal funding assistance. The review council, which will hold its first public meeting within 90 days, is tasked with conducting a full-scale review of FEMA and recommending improvements or structural changes to enhance national resilience. Trump's executive order marks a significant step towards reevaluating the role and operations of FEMA, reflecting his ongoing critique of the agency's performance in disaster management.
