Applaud States Suing Trump to Save Disaster Funds

A coalition of 20 states just filed a bold lawsuit against the Trump administration to stop its reckless decision to eliminate FEMA’s Building Resilient Infrastructures and Communities (BRIC) program — a multibillion-dollar effort to strengthen communities before natural disasters strike.

This critical program has funded nearly 2,000 projects nationwide, saving lives and avoiding over $150 billion in disaster costs. By shutting it down, the Trump administration is forcing communities to cancel or scale back projects that protect people from floods, fires, and hurricanes.

The lawsuit makes it clear: Congress authorized this funding, and Trump’s move to dismantle BRIC violates the law and puts millions of Americans at risk.

Add your name to applaud these states for standing up to protect their communities!
