Vitter lifts hold on FEMA director nominee. - Think Progress »
On May 1, Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) announced — with almost no explanation why — that he had put a hold on President Obama’s nominee to head FEMA, Craig Fugate. Last week, the White House responded by calling Vitter’s hold “political posturing,” while Vitter continued to insist that he had “not received the information he has requested about how FEMA would treat certain issues of importance to Louisiana.” Today, however, Vitter announced that he’s lifting his hold. He said a letter he received Monday from FEMA officials assured him that the agency was working hard to resolve an issue related to reconstruction delays that resulted from the agency’s “interpretation of rules that prohibit federal financing of construction projects in flood zones.”
