FEMA says it is ‘fully positioned’ to deal with Hurricane Milton’s assault through Florida
Amid reports of understaffing, disinformation and political haggling over disaster aid money, the Federal Emergency Management Agency declared Tuesday it is “well-positioned” to handle the needs of Floridians who become disaster victims as Hurricane Milton plows across the state.
On paper, the State of Florida appears to be as prepared as possible to cope with the storm, now proclaimed by President Joe Biden as “the worst storm of the century.”
Gov. Ron DeSantis has deployed a broad roster of agencies from the National and State Guards to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and various health and regulatory agencies.
But the heavyweight agency designed to provide states with the bulwark of their disaster recovery support is FEMA, a Carter Administration creation whose job it is to provide aid to people in impacted areas by providing cash, technical help and guidance before and after storms do their damage.
In a statement, the agency said its administrator. Deanne Criswell, “is on the ground, meeting with officials across the impacted states to marshal the full capabilities of the federal government.”
