As Hurricane Helene careened toward Florida’s Panhandle, numerous Republicans voted against extending funding for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Last week, Congress approved $20 billion for FEMA’s disaster relief fund as part of a stopgap spending bill to fund the government through December 20. But the measure left out billions of dollars in requested supplemental disaster funding.
The Senate approved the measure by a 78-18 vote on September 25 after it passed the House in a 341-82 vote. Republicans supplied the no votes in both chambers.
Some of the Republicans who voted against the bill represent states that have been hard hit by Helene, including Florida Representative Matt Gaetz.

What? Lol. You’re not even coherent anymore. Do you care to comment about the actual subject of this post though?
Reading comprehension doesn’t seem to be your strong suit. Why would I waste any actual thought on some weird teenager who thinks there are uNdErCoVer rEpUbLiCaNs in this thread CREATING OUTRAGE and KEEPING OTHERS FROM ENGAGING lolol, I have a hard time even typing that out without cringing, you weirdo
Sigh. Don’t be so dramatic. I’m just here to talk about the actual subject of this post. I didn’t care about your voting preferences. I just think it’s wrong to try and block disaster aid.
Lol “sigh” followed by “don’t be dramatic”, classic :) also following your bizarre accusations about my NEFARIOUS MOTIVATIONS, totally not dramatic
Kinda weird to say “I don’t care about your voting preferences” after explicitly making this our back-and-forth all about my voting preferences (well, your incorrect assumption about my voting preferences)
