Original Note:
Congress appropriated funding for the Shelters & Services Program in both 2023 & 2024, separate from other FEMA funding. The stated purpose was to provide financial assistance to local govs and nonprofits that housed migrants released by CBP. No funds were ever "diverted." https://www.fema.gov/grants/shelter-services-program https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/documents/fema_gpd-fy-2024-ssp-competitive-nofo_amended.pdf
