Biden asks Congress for $100 billion in massive lame-duck disaster relief request

The Biden White House is pressuring Congress to pass a new supplemental funding request to assist with disaster relief and recovery worth roughly $100 billion.

President Joe Biden sent House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) a letter about the request on Monday. It includes $40 billion to replenish the Federal Emergency Management Agency‘s Disaster Relief Fund and an additional $2 billion to refill the Small Business Administration’s disaster loan assistance program.

White House officials have stressed in the weeks following Hurricanes Milton and Helene that those federal programs would need to be replenished quickly as the cleanup efforts drag into the new year.

Shalanda Young, Biden’s Office of Management and Budget director, and FEMA Director Deanne Criswell told reporters on a call detailing Monday’s request that there is a bipartisan desire to advance additional disaster aid.

No.  Go screw.  The election is over.  You lost.  FJB

Pull FEMA out of DHS.  Don't give Mayorkas another dime to hand out to illegal immigrants.

I want an immediate financial audit of DHS.

I suspect Biden Admin used DHS as a slush-fund for UnidosUS (La Raza) and illegal immigrant NGO's.  This $100 Billion might be to backfill monies wasted on illegal immigrants.

Stop giving 'free shit' FEMA money to illegals first.  Then we can talk.

NO MORE $

Just like what we all have to do when we already spent all we have, and then some.

And isn't it disgusting that the POS Biden gives away another $100 billion to Ukraine instead of funding FEMA with this amount.
