Original Note:
FEMA simply administered dispersion of part of the budget assigned to Customs and Border Protection. They did not use disaster relief funds. The hotel rooms also fell within the per diem budget for NYC rates and were not luxury hotels as alluded to. https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2025/fema-sent-59-million-luxury-hotels-new-york-immigrants/
