Trump's FEMA Pick: Navy SEAL, Critic, or Savior?
from The Daily News Now! Business
Trumps FEMA Nominee: A Former Navy SEAL with a Controversial Past President Trump has nominated Cameron Hamilton, a former Navy SEAL, to lead the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Hamilton previously served as interim chief and wrote a memo proposing to abolish FEMA. However, he later changed his stance and supported keeping the agency. Hamiltons nomination comes after Trump ousted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and amidst concerns about FEMAs understaffing and low morale. The agency has faced budget cuts and has been involved in controversial decisions, such as canceling grant programs that were later reversed by courts. With hurricane season and wildfires looming, Hamiltons confirmation hearing is set to be a hot topic, as he will need to address concerns about FEMAs future and its role in disaster preparedness and response.
