Texas Flood: Leaders Warn of Impact of FEMA, NOAA Cuts

Following severe flooding in Texas, elected officials are expressing concerns that proposed budget cuts to FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) could severely hamper future disaster response efforts.

These leaders argue that reduced funding for these critical agencies would limit their ability to provide timely and effective assistance to communities affected by extreme weather events.
