Former FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate joins us to outline urgent ways the federal government can improve disaster response—before the next hurricane or wildfire hits. In this exclusive interview, we break down his recent Tampa Bay Times column calling for smarter survivor assistance, faster public rebuilding, and stronger local preparedness.
With hurricane season just weeks away, Fugate—who led FEMA under Presidents Obama and Bush—explains how the agency can move faster, deliver clearer help to families, and avoid rebuilding the same vulnerable communities over and over.
