gao report on impacts of fema staffing levels

We have known about the cuts in staffing and significant degradation in the institutional knowledge of some critical positions. You can do that just by following the news. Earlier this week I did a blog post on this same topic/issue.

Now we have this Government Accountability Office (GAO) report addressing the impacts of decreased funding at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), check out, this article that also contains a link to the GAO Report, FEMA’s staffing shortages have hindered past disaster recovery efforts, GAO says. Now the agency has even fewer workers

Bingo! There are problems now and you can forecast even more issues with a significant disaster.
