A group of Hurricane Katrina and Rita victims has filed a class action suit against FEMA for allegedly not living up to its promise of continuing to provide housing aid. 
 
FEMA announced that 17,000 families will no longer receive rental help after May 31, 2006 and that stricter qualification standards will be applied for those in emergency housing. 
 
The class has also asked for a temporary restraining order so that aid will continue past the deadline while the case is litigated.

Comment On: FEMA Sued
Posted by James T Leggett on 9/24/2007 | Filed Under: FEMA

Hello I agree with the evacuees and am in support. My family was a part of Rita that Fema says did not happen. We hsve bben through a lot of red tape with Fema and tired of dealing with them. Fema has caused more trouble to my family with threats to put us in prison. I have filed a large law suit against fema and the state of Teaxs which proceeds will go to victoms that have not been helped. It just seems that it would have been better off if there was no storm at all because fema does not care, they hope people die. And they just want you to keep sending in information that has been verified ten times over, it rediculous but it's the government. I would apprciate the support from other victoms and if you can give any type of support it woud help my email jlegg2002@yahoo.com Thank you!
