DHS and Secretary Mayorkas Refute Claims of Diverted FEMA Funds for Migrants and Hurricane Survivors
Oct 4, 2024, 06:24 PM
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have refuted claims that FEMA is running out of money due to funds being diverted to the resettlement of migrants. According to DHS, these claims are entirely false, and FEMA has the necessary resources to address immediate disaster response needs. Secretary Mayorkas has affirmed that FEMA is equipped to meet these needs. FEMA has also released a website to debunk rumors, stating explicitly that no money is being diverted from disaster response needs. Viral posts and statements from various sources, including former President Trump, suggesting otherwise have been debunked. These false claims particularly concern funding for hurricane survivors.
