Dear Senator / Representative:

Please speak out about the politicization of disaster relief.

On September 1, President Trump announced on Truth Social that he was approving disaster dollars for states that included campaign endorsements for each state. Here’s an example:

“I just informed Andy Barr, who is running to be the next Senator from the incredible Commonwealth of Kentucky, that I am approving 9.1 Million Dollars for severe storms, winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides, that they are recovering from. The Great People of Kentucky are resilient, smart, and tough, and I am with them all the way. Vote for Andy Barr — He has my Complete and Total Endorsement, and he will never let you down! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

An AP analysis from July showed that Trump has “rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.”

Congress must make it clear that disaster relief decisions must not be politicized.

I ask that you:

- Clearly denounce this behavior.
- Introduce a congressional resolution that emphasizes the non-political nature of disaster relief.
- Decry the blatant linkage of disaster relief and campaign endorsements. If this is not illegal, please make it so.

Thank you.

Landowners still rebuilding a year after deepest snowfall in 'living memory'
By Brigitte Murphy

"A disaster in slow motion" is how an orchardist describes last year's snowstorm on the New South Wales Northern Tablelands. He says the clean-up is moving at the same pace.

And there you have it. The whole, "we'll dismantle FEMA and give those funds directly to the states," is just BS. Wisconsin is told to suck it.

Those disaster dollars are his funds and he'll use them for whatever he wants!
