FEMA attempts to poison remaining Katrina victims
FEMA slammed for using toxic trailers
NEW ORLEANS – FEMA, already a dirty word along the Gulf Coast, has taken another hit to its reputation.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency came under new withering criticism Thursday after tests found dangerous levels of formaldehyde fumes in many of the trailers the agency used to house hurricane victims in Louisiana and Mississippi.
“This is such gross incompetence. I really have not in my 10 years seen anything like this on the domestic front,” said U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La.
FEMA Administrator R. David Paulison said Thursday the agency would rush to find temporary housing for roughly 35,000 families now in its trailers. “We’re moving as fast as we can,” he said.</em>
Really? Is that why you’ve ignored this issue for years? Cretins.
