On Thursday’s “CNN News Central,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stated that FEMA is “doing everything that they can” in the wake of the fires in Hawaii.
Jean-Pierre stated, “The president is going to continue to marshal a whole-of-government effort, approach, as he has done from day one, with having dozens of federal agencies and departments on the ground helping local partners and state partners get the assistance, the federal assistance that these survivors need. And this is incredibly important. This is something that the president takes very seriously.
Co-host Sara Sidner then asked, “FEMA was on the ground, they have been criticized in the past, in past disasters for not getting there quickly enough. But in this case, they were on the ground, quickly. I do want to ask you, though, you talk about people having to call that number, they have to register, as we understand it, call the number, go to the website.
Jean-Pierre responded, “And so, here’s the thing, our job and FEMA, the administrator has spoken to this — and, obviously and unfortunately, she and her team have had to deal with many disasters over the past two years, as we’re dealing with extreme weather — they are on the ground, they are doing everything that they can. Obviously, this is a dynamic situation, as you’ve heard directly from the administrator.
