Disaster Relief Fund Nearly Dry as Congress Recesses

As the hurricane season enters its busiest time and with Congress out for recess, FEMA is left with a dwindling Disaster Relief Fund, the money used to help communities recover after hurricanes.

August 11, 2023 • 

As the busiest part of hurricane season approaches, the federal government said that it may run out of money to help affected communities by the end of this month.

Hurricane season runs from June through November and communities hit by one can be afforded recovery monies to help fix public infrastructure, roads, bridges, schools, fire stations, etc., through the federal Disaster Relief Fund, managed by FEMA.

“We are monitoring it very closely and working with the administration on a very continuous basis, so we can understand when we are going to approach potential deficit and what tools we might have to implement to ensure that we will always have the funding available to respond," FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell told a Cox Media Group reporter.
