FEMA ANNOUNCES LOST WAGES GRANT FOR NEVADA [https://www.fema.gov/press-release/20210318/fema-announces-lost-wages-grant-nevada] Release Date: Tháng 9 12, 2020 WASHINGTON -- FEMA Administrator Pete Gaynor approved Nevada for a FEMA grant under the Lost Wages Assistance program. FEMA’s grant funding will allow Nevada to provide $300 per week -- on top of their regular unemployment benefit -- to those unemployed due to COVID-19. FEMA will work with Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak to implement a system to make this funding available to Nevada residents. On Aug. 8, 2020, President Trump made available up to $44 billion from FEMA’s Disaster Relief Fund to provide financial assistance to Americans who have lost wages due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, the state of Nevada agreed to administer a lost wages program for its citizens who are unemployed due to COVID-19. FEMA looks forward to working with the governors of additional states who agree to administer a lost wages program to bring financial relief to unemployed Americans.
