I am writing You requesting that you help victims of Hurricane Ike.On 5-27-07 a bill passed that alotted 6.4 Billion dollars for gulf coast hurricane recovery and 3 Billion for emergency draught and natural disaster relief for farmers. Why can't this money be used to help victims immediately? People on the gulfcoast need help now. People have no homes to live in and not much if any help from the government.If they had the $2000 expidited assistance they could at least rent a house.These are your people who are suffering and noone is helping them.Many promises are being made by Kevin Brady, Ted Poe, and Kay Bailey Hutchinson but no action.Please act now and help victims of Hurricane Ike.I have attached a copy of the letter that I sent to my local,state,and government officials.Please email me back and let me know if you can do anything to help us. Thank You, Angel McCroskey
FEMA announced at a Tuesday press release that there would be no $2000 expedited assistance but will pay for hotels between Sept.15 and Oct 15 if the hotel is participating in the program. FEMA will not reimburse applicants for prevously incurred hotel expenses. Currently participating hotels are booked solid. In the aftermath of Hurricane Ike I find it unbelievable that there is such a lack of help for victims of Hurricane Ike. Alot of people did not evacuate for the storm due to lack of money and lack of hotel vacancies.Some of these people paid with their lives.On TV and in our neighborhoods in southeast texas you see homes destroyed,people missing,no gas,no electricity,no food,no water.It really makes me wonder why our government and people who could afford to help Texas have not done so. I have heard no announcement of Brad Pitt coming to rebuild Galveston like he did in New Orleans. Nor have I heard of Barbra Streisand announcing that she will be singing to help raise money for disaster areas in Texas like she raised millions this week for a Presidental canidate.Even though it seems Texas has been forgotten I know that we will do what we did after Hurricane Rita and pull together and help eachother.I can only hope that when election day comes you all remember the local, state and government officials that helped you during Hurricane Ike. But also remember the ones who did not.
