“I agree with you, as the chairman of a Homeland Security subcommittee, that much more must be done to engage our communities about the need to be prepared for all types of disasters and that special efforts are required to engage the most vulnerable members of our communities.

FEMA has told us of its plans to engage in this type of preparedness effort. We intend to monitor that. We strongly support it.”
