Trump Signs Executive Order Establishing Review Council for FEMA Overhaul Post-Hurricane Helene
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), signaling a potential overhaul or elimination of the agency. This move comes after Trump's visit to areas in western North Carolina devastated by Hurricane Helene last year, where he criticized FEMA's effectiveness and suggested that disaster response should be managed by the states with federal funding assistance. The review council, established by the executive order, is tasked with recommending improvements or structural changes to FEMA to promote national interest and resilience. Trump's executive order follows his earlier comments about possibly getting rid of FEMA, indicating a significant shift in federal disaster management policy.
