Formaldehyde-Filled FEMA Trailers

Americans living in government trailers large enough for a Barbie doll or two is bad enough. More alarming is their extended 20 month plus stay because the Bush Administration has yet to belly up to the bar and provide real leadership in the recovery efforts down here.

If the Bush White House had taken a leadership role and resolved this issue in favor of policyholders, then 50,000 families remaining in FEMA trailers would have long ago been able to rebuild or renovate their Katrina destroyed homes. These families would have been able to have moved out of their FEMA trailers, which bring up the latest example of the Administration’s despicable and deliberate neglect in Katrina land.
