WI Attorney General Josh Kaul secured a preliminary injunction preserving billions of dollars in disaster mitigation funding for the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program, and blocking the Trump Administration from spending those funds on other purposes. “Resources that are meant to help communities prepare to stay safe should be used for that purpose. The Trump administration should not—and cannot lawfully—redirect this funding.” – AG Kaul
