Biden-Harris Sends $425M to Ukraine, $157M to Lebanon Amid Hurricane Relief Fund Shortages
Oct 16, 2024, 06:55 PM
The Biden-Harris administration has announced an additional $425 million in funding for Ukraine—the 67th aid package since August 2021—and $157 million for Lebanon. This decision has drawn criticism as domestic disaster relief efforts for hurricane victims are reportedly underfunded. The Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have indicated they are running out of funds for hurricane victims, with some receiving as little as $750 in aid or being denied assistance altogether. Critics argue that while substantial funds are being sent overseas, Americans affected by recent hurricanes in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Western North Carolina are struggling with insufficient support.
