FEMA Slow To Investigate Toxic Trailers
FEMA is under fire for being slow to investigate reports by Hurricane Katrina victims who testified they've fallen ill from high levels of formaldehyde in their FEMA-provided trailers. What do you think?
Therese Dougan,
Office Manager
"Oh come on, those illnesses could've been the result of any one of the many governmental failures following Katrina."
Jeremy Wallace,
Grants Advisor
"This sounds like a pretty serious federal emergency. Thank God we have FEMA to take care of it."
Kelly Fowler,
Systems Analyst
"If anyone else can think of a better place for FEMA to store its formaldehyde, I'd like to hear it."
