Congress signed a continuing resolution that provides the agency’s Disaster Relief Fund with an additional $20 billion before next year’s budget is approved. “So there is money there for this disaster, for these disaster survivors to make sure that their life, safety, and shelter and sheltering needs are being met,” said Elizabeth Zimmerman, a senior adviser at Innovative Emergency Management, who served as an associate FEMA administrator during the Obama administration.
