The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) on Wednesday denied aid to Arizona counties after September flooding.
Local officials estimate there was more than $30 million in damage to public infrastructure and homes.
“The people of Gila and Mohave County were devastated by flooding from severe monsoon storms this September. Now, they’ve been denied support from the federal government with little explanation,” Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs (D) said in a statement.
“By denying much-needed relief, this administration is leaving Arizonans out on their own after their homes, businesses, roads, and bridges were decimated by historic storms,” she added.
Hobbs said the state would appeal FEMA’s denial for disaster relief. The Department of Homeland Security, which houses FEMA, did not immediately respond to The Hill’s request for comment on the matter.
