Kat Cammack suggests bias against Republican voters goes further than FEMA – Washington Examiner

Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) called out federal programs for their biases against Republican voters when it comes to rendering services to them.

Cammack condemned the Federal Emergency Management Agency for “saying the quiet part out loud” regarding its bias against Trump supporters but lamented that it is not the only agency guilty of doing so. FEMA fired a supervisor when it discovered a message that ordered employees to avoid homes with Trump signs in their yards.

“But more than that, I want to see actual aid go to those that are most impacted in my district. I have taken three storms in 13 months,” Cammack said Tuesday on Newsmax’s The National Report. “We have lost hundreds if not thousands of homes. And, of course, my district is a very pro-Trump district.”

Newsmax anchor Emma Rechenberg asked Cammack whether there were other agencies with the same discriminatory policies, to which the representative responded, “Absolutely.”

“We’ve known about this for four years, quite frankly. The fact that $47 billion has been spent on connecting individuals to broadband, yet not one person has been connected to broadband. And when you look at those most in need of connectivity, they are in predominantly Red, pro-Trump areas,” Cammack explained. “We see this in the health inequity. We see this all across the board in multiple different agencies. It just so happens that FEMA said the quiet part out loud.”

This broadband initiative comes from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, which reported that 7 million homes lack access to high-speed internet service. While the program has been in operation since November 2021, it wasn’t until Tuesday that it was announced that all 50 states had finally approved “Internet for All” plans.

Former FEMA Supervisor Marn’i Washington told the Washington Examiner that her precautionary message to her employees was sent to avoid “hostile political encounters.” Washington said she had the approval of her superiors to enact a policy “to keep the team safe.”
