FEMA Faces Scrutiny Over Alleged Political Bias and Internal Controversies

House Republicans questioned FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell over allegations of political bias in hurricane recovery efforts, following the firing of FEMA supervisor Marn'i Washington for allegedly instructing employees to avoid homes with Trump campaign signs. Criswell maintained the incident was isolated and requested an inspector general investigation. GOP Rep. Jim Jordan challenged Criswell on the agency's practices, while Criswell assured lawmakers that FEMA's mission is to help all people, denying any widespread cultural bias within the agency.
