FEMA to reimburse families for COVID-19 funeral expenses

2021-03-19

[Just The News] The Federal Emergency Management Agency will help reimburse residents who have paid for the funeral of a family member who died of COVID-19 complications.

Only those who incurred funeral expenses after January 20, 2020, will be eligible for reimbursement. The virus arrived the U.S. as early as late-December 2019 or early-January 2020.

"The COVID-19 pandemic has brought overwhelming grief to many families," FEMA says in an undated post on its website. "Our mission is to help people before, during and after disasters. We are dedicated to helping ease some of the financial stress and burden caused by the virus.

#2 If you were the governor of Texas, Besoeker, would you trust any federal organization to take the lead on protecting Texas from this invited invasion?

If the border "emergency" requires additional augmentation and manpower, the National Guard could be subordinated to the FEMA Region 6 office, located in Denton, Texas. Really no need for the Governor of Texas to get involved.

The proliferation of "assault weapons" is yet another area where FEMA expertise and assistance could be leveraged.
