Track FEMA supplies through final delivery
Edwards says Congress should address FEMA’s failure to track disaster supplies to their final destinations. He argues that when FEMA uses taxpayer funds to buy recovery resources, it should be able to verify where they are delivered so they reach the communities they are meant to support and reduce the risk of waste or abuse.
Context: The testimony calls for congressional action but does not specify a tracking system or propose legislation.
In their own words
it’s my belief that this committee can and should address this issue for future disasters.
