💨 Abstract

Hurricane Milton and Helene are putting pressure on FEMA, the U.S. emergency response agency, which is short of money, battling a disinformation campaign, and recovering from past failures. Currently supporting 111 major disasters, FEMA has only 9% of its disaster-response workforce available for Milton. The agency is facing funding issues and a wave of false rumors about how funds have been used.
