WASHINGTON — FEMA continues close coordination with our state, tribal and local governments for disaster responses across the country. President Trump approved emergency declarations for Alabama, Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi to provide federal assistance for Hurricane Sally and major disaster declarations for California and Oregon to support wildfire response. FEMA teams and disaster recovery resources are on the ground to support Hurricane Sally and the wildfires, assisting with state recovery efforts. Residents in affected states should continue paying close attention to their local emergency managers for safety instructions.
