Americans face delays in disaster aid under Trump administration

The article reports that President Trump has taken longer to approve disaster aid requests and has more frequently denied aid to Democratic-led states, compared to previous presidents. Since taking office, Trump’s administration has approved about 65 major disaster declarations and denied over two dozen, with approval times averaging over a month and a half. This delay and partisanship in disaster responses have led to criticisms that aid decisions are influenced by political alignment, with a higher approval rate for Republican and Trump-supporting states. FEMA is considering reforms that could further shift responsibility to states and reduce federal aid, potentially impacting the speed and extent of disaster recovery efforts.
