Original Note:
Misleading. Congress allocates funds SEPARATELY to FEMA's Shelter & Services Program (SSP) & Disaster Relief Funds. SSP funds ($1.4B over 2 years) CAN'T be used as Disaster Relief Funds. SSP funds are on page 277. Disaster Relief Fund is on page 284. https://www.congress.gov/117/plaws/publ328/PLAW-117publ328.pdf https://nypost.com/2024/10/03/us-news/feds-say-theres-no-money-left-to-respond-to-hurricanes-after-fema-used-640-9m-this-year-on-migrants/#:~:text=As%20Secretary%20Mayorkas,or%20funding%20streams https://x.com/ChadPergram/status/1841929022542057625 https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20240318/Division%20C%20Homeland.pdf https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/2023-11/2023_1018_fema_shelter_and_services_program_fy23.pdf (page 5)
