FEMA has refused to reimburse California for certain COVID-19 hotel stays for homeless people - that FEMA says exceeded time limits.
California's Congressional representatives have asked FEMA to reconsider its refusal to reimburse local governments for certain COVID-19 hotel room stays for homeless peopleMembers of California's Congressional delegation asked FEMA this week to reconsider its decision to refuse to reimburse a number of local governments for a portion of the millions of dollars spent during the COVID-19 emergency to house some homeless people in hotels.
Local governments were expecting about $300 million more in these reimbursements in California, including about $60-million for cash-strapped Los Angeles, which FEMA notified the state last October that only hotel stays of 20 days or less were eligible for reimbursement, a time limit that Congressman Garcia said was not communicated to state or local agencies.A FEMA spokesperson told the I-Team Wednesday that its criteria for emergency funding didn't change, and the agency has committed a total of more than $9.4-billion to California for COVID relief programs.
"FEMA, under its Public Assistance Program, works closely with State, Tribal, Territorial and Local governments to provide all eligible and available funding for reimbursement, and will continue to do so for those impacted during the pandemic.”
