Today Nevada became one of only 3-4 states with EM housed inside the governors office. When will more states step up?

How #Trump & #Noem “redeployed” #FEMA:

- Refused/Failed to name experienced #EmergencyManager as #FEMAAdministrator & obtain Senate approval.

- Induced loss of 20% of FEMA’s permanent, experienced staff.

- Refused to renew contracts for timely deployment of #SearchAndRescue resources to #TX.

Even after Texas floods, S.F. has no plans to fix its defunct tsunami warning sirens Though the system has been defunct since 2019 and officials have discussed whether to fix or replace the sirens, Mayor Daniel Lurie did not include funding for it in his budget proposal.

Even after #Texas floods, #SanFrancisco refuses to find the will and the $$$ to fix its defunct #OutdoorPublicWarningSystem sirens. As a former #SF #EmergencyManager, I hope the City rethinks this shortsighted decision.

Be sure to share your own stories about how and why #EMI, #CDP, or the other #FEMA #emergencymanagement training programs helped you become a stronger #emergencymanager.

It is not clear whether #FEMA is also canceling #EmergencyManager training held in-person at #NETC in #Emmitsburg. If anyone has insight into that, please share. #EM #greysky #EmergencyManagement

As crises em cenários de desastres assemelham-se a uma cebola ardida, repletas de camadas que exigem descascamento meticuloso, a fim de evitar danos irreparáveis e o comprometimento de todo o esforço empreendido.

As an #EmergencyManager who usually sat in the #PlanningSection in an #EmergencyOperationsCenter during #disasters, I’m used to working behind the scenes helping in ways that definitely are not “glorious.” But that’s what sustains the glorious work of field responders. #EM #EmergencyManagement

I don’t know an #EmergencyManager who thinks #FEMA is perfect or that improvement isn’t needed. But no other federal agency has been asked to do so much for so long, with so few resources and so little support.

Well the electricity just went out in our entire #BostonEdison neighborhood in #Detroit. Hope this isn't an #emergencymanager omen.
