## Resource

Cameron Hamilton, who briefly led FEMA last year before being ousted, is back in the running for the top disaster response job — a move that’s both surprising and loaded, given his past criticism of FEMA and the administration’s earlier talk of dismantling the agency. With summer disaster season looming and a workforce battered by recent leadership chaos, Hamilton faces immense pressure to stabilize FEMA while navigating the President’s push for sweeping changes. Meanwhile, David Cummins is also up for a hearing to lead TSA — making this a pivotal week for national security and emergency response leadership.
