On Nov. 8, 2024, an investigation from conservative news outlet The Daily Wire claimed that an official of the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) had instructed hurricane-response workers to avoid homes with signs supporting then-presidential candidate Donald Trump in their front yards.

A Federal Emergency Management Agency employee has been fired after they advised their disaster relief team to avoid homes with signs supporting former President Donald Trump while canvassing in Florida in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton,

The agency said it was investigating the incident in the aftermath of the Category 3 hurricane that hit Florida in October.

A woman who was fired by FEMA after instructing workers to avoid the homes of Trump supporters in Florida revealed that the agency also practiced “avoidance” in the Carolinas.

A Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) worker was fired for instructing staff to avoid homes with yard signs supporting President-elect Donald Trump during Hurricane Milton's recovery efforts in Florida.

The employee, who was not named, was fired from her position, Administrator Deanne Criswell said in a post to social media on Saturday.

FEMA supervisor who was fired for instructing subordinates to skip over houses with Trump signs says that her actions were in accord with agency guidance and were not isolated to her team alone.
