South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has addressed allegations of neglect during emergencies, including the massive flooding that occurred in June 2024. Noem, who is being considered for the position of leading the Department of Homeland Security, would be responsible for overseeing the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) at a time when natural disasters are on the rise.
Responding to claims made by some constituents, Noem firmly stated, 'that is absolutely not true whatsoever.' She emphasized that her administration is actively working through the FEMA process to provide affected families with the necessary resources following the tragic events.
