The Federal Emergency Management Agency can meet immediate needs but does not have enough funding to make it through the hurricane season , Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told reporters Wednesday.
"We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting," Mayorkas said. "FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the season." House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., gave no hint he was considering changing that schedule during a speech Tuesday. He said that Congress just provided FEMA with the funds it needs to respond and that lawmakers would make sure those resources are appropriately allocated.
