Freedom is Important because People are Important

Hello,

It will be interesting to see what happens in this quarter. The agency appears to be underfunded or overtaxed, and there are some Republicans (Ron Paul included) who are already making noises that suggest they wouldn't mind strangling the agency further in the interests of budget reduction.

Reducing the FEMA budget may be political suicide at this time. I wonder how this subject will be approached throughout the next year by fiscal conservatives.
