FEMA BRIC eliminated - notice coming tomorrow

Apparently it was an AF1 decision, but it’s not a RIF and nothing is known about timelines.

Great now in theory how to states with limited staff execute these block grants ? And even more limited staff when you go from State-County-City / Tribes. Locals are going to have to do much more work and honestly its hard to get them to do the request for information already

RFIs are painfully slow. Half the time it’s because the county EM is a farmer and you can’t get ahold of them during planting or harvest. This will work great! 🙄

Farmers won't be able to sell their crops now anyway because of Tariffs, should have more time to respond to RFIs
