IAEM, along with 9 other stakeholders, sent the attached letter to Capitol Hill urging Congress to replenish the Disaster Relief Fund though the Continuing Resolution currently under negotiation. The letter urges Congress to do four things...
- Replenish the DRF through the CR - $22B
- Provide the additional $10 million in disaster relief
- Backfill the $6.1 billion in recovery activities that have gone unfunded since FEMA went to Immediate Needs Funding (INF) in August
- Include "such funds as appropriate to avoid INF again next year."
Please share this letter with your Senators and Member of Congress.
