FEMA Fires Three Supervisors After Investigation into Skipping Trump-Supporting Homes for Hurricane Relief

The agency's probe found no systemic issue but terminated staff for failing to meet conduct standards and ordered additional training to ensure impartial disaster aid.

FEMA terminated three supervisors following an investigation into relief workers skipping homes with Trump campaign signs in hurricane-hit Florida.
The investigation found no evidence of a systemic problem but identified failures in leadership oversight within the immediate supervisory chain.
Acting FEMA Administrator Cameron Hamilton emphasized that political affiliation should never influence disaster relief efforts and announced additional staff training.
Former FEMA supervisor Marn'i Washington, previously fired for issuing the directive, claimed she was scapegoated and that the practice reflected existing local trends.
The Trump administration and GOP lawmakers, including Rep. Vern Buchanan and Sen. Katie Britt, praised the firings as a step toward accountability and impartiality in federal aid.
