Are you disputing that the payment is not the only aid they will get, or that Helene victims were not offered a one time emergency payment also?

Correction - they applied for and if approved they received
a $750 LOAN!
Seems like that might not be enough to move out of the state & that would be the primary need of many of these folks.
No it is not a loan and it does not have to be repaid. It does need to be applied for, otherwise how would FEMA have information to transfer the funds to people who want/need them, and to track who has received funds to prevent people receiving multiple payments. But it is not a loan.
“They look at the average income tax paid in the area...”
Did they also figure in the zero amount being paid by the illegals hiding in the state? That should have dropped the amount even more if they did. Like down a couple of hundred dollars each.

Soooo, what other payments have they received????
That’s $20 more than Western NC victims got...
More expensive time zone, maybe...

Inflation.................
I have no idea. The aubject of the post was the $750 payments. FEMA was in my area and there was an application process and only certain items were covered by FEMA. Besides the one time payment for immediate needs, payments by FEMA are determined on a case by case basis, determined by damage, and what the applicant applied for. There may be other determinative issues but I don’t know all the particulars.
“How do they come up with these odd amounts?”
It probably hits a magic number so the recipients have to pay the most tax back to the government.
Hurricane Helene victims, including those in TN and NC, received a one time $750 payment.
THAT is 'bullsh*t. What is YOUR source for this statement?
Just Google it and you’ll find thousands of hits. Also it was all over the news, including reports stating that some were not applying for the aid because they were told if they applied that FEMA would confiscate their property, or that aid was not available to Republicans, neither of which were true. Just search Helene $750 aid. Do you think I made it up? LOL.
You might want to visit the 'Helene' threads on the Conservative Treehouse...PLENTY of videos from ACTUAL PEOPLE on the ground telling their stories...not agenda-driven CRAP from GOOGLE and the 'mainstream' media.
LOL. Where is your source? Some random people putting videos on a website? Have a nice day!
Biden Administration lackeys in Helene’s path were told not to go to Trump supporting houses because they were dangerous. That’s a fact. You’re supporting the Biden Administration line.
Leftist.
I’ve got 14 examples in the first page of your posts that suggest you are a leftist.
There are NO examples suggesting you are a conservative.
LEFTIST!
