Senate Republicans Warn Joe Biden, Kamala Harris Siphoning FEMA Funds from Americans to Help Migrants

John Binder 7 Oct 2024

A handful of Senate Republicans are warning that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are siphoning taxpayer funds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), meant for Americans in need following natural disasters, to help migrants newly released into the United States.

“Congress has appropriated over $30 billion to FEMA for Fiscal Year 2024. Your Administration has spent over $650 million on FEMA’s border-related programs in Fiscal Year 2024. Since taking office, the Biden-Harris Administration has spent around $1.5 billion on FEMA’s border-related programs,” the Senators wrote to Biden and Harris.

The letter, from October 4, reads:

    We are concerned that your Administration’s reliance on FEMA to address the ongoing border crisis, under Vice President Harris as ‘border czar,’ has diminished FEMA’s readiness for disaster relief, including hurricane response. [Emphasis added]

The letter, signed by Sens. Roger Marshall (R-KS), Josh Hawley (R-MO), Rand Paul (R-KY), James Lankford (R-OK), and Ron Johnson (R-WI), comes as Americans across six states, including North Carolina, Tennessee, and South Carolina, have been left devastated by Hurricane Helene.

The broke out the template for a 'stern letter'?

Not so crippling as the DEI bureaucrats on the ground playing CYA and laying down the red tape. More competent people would simply coordinate those private efforts in a constructive way, and the goods would get where they need to go. Instead, "Equity" is their primary goal, not help, not rescue, not recovery--of bodies or towns.

Run a clean, tight operation, that utilizes all resources well, and the resources will come to you. Instead, they get clueless on parade.
