It is very unfortunate that despite repeated requests, months of notice and flexibility provided to accommodate a potential witness, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has chosen not to have any representation at this hearing and not to respond to questions about the issues and challenges that nearly 4 million Americans continue to face with its programs.
Plaskett criticizes FEMA for not attending the hearing on recovery issues.
