Senators highlighted a troubling partisan gap: 75% of disaster funding requests from Democratic-led states were denied, sparking outrage over political interference. With FEMA lagging in response times and lacking critical staff—nearly 350 roles to be filled—Criswell emphasized the need for tailored aid, especially for Western states battling wildfires. Her West Coast upbringing gives her firsthand insight into the devastation, and she’s promising a more consistent, community-focused approach to disaster response.
