Vice President Kamala Harris recently spoke in a call with a source, emphasizing that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) currently possesses the necessary resources to address the damage caused by Hurricane Milton. Harris stated, 'FEMA absolutely has the resources that it needs now and to deal with this hurricane as it hits and the aftermath.'
Furthermore, Harris highlighted the importance of advancing legislation in Congress to provide funding for FEMA aid, enabling the agency to effectively manage the increasing frequency of devastating storms. She expressed concern over the unprecedented nature of recent weather events, stating, 'This is really historic in terms of what we’ve seen, and so we do need to buff up the aid and assistance that we give FEMA understanding that this is unusual and may be sadly the new normal.'
