Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) released the following statement today after the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) approved an extension of Transitional Sheltering Assistance (TSA) for displaced victims of Hurricane Maria:
“FEMA’s approval of a TSA extension for displaced survivors of Hurricane Maria is welcomed news. TSA was a critical short-term housing solution that allowed many families to recover in Florida after Hurricane Maria. Now that FEMA has announced that this will be the last TSA extension, it is vital that FEMA and HUD work on long-term housing solutions for the displaced Puerto Ricans as I have urged on numerous occasions.”
Rubio previously called for TSA extensions for Hurricane Maria victims in April and January.
Washington, D.C. – El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) dio a conocer hoy la siguiente declaración después que la Agencia Federal para el Manejo de Emergencias (FEMA) aprobara una extensión a la Asistencia de Refugio de Transición (TSA) para las víctimas desplazadas del Huracán María:
“La decisión de FEMA de otorgar una extensión al TSA para los sobrevivientes desplazados del huracán María es una buena noticia. El TSA fue una solución a corto plazo en temas de vivienda que permitió que muchas familias se recuperaran en la Florida después del paso del huracán María. Ahora que FEMA ha anunciado que esta será la última extensión del TSA, es vital que FEMA y el HUD trabajen en conjunto para encontrar soluciones de vivienda a largo plazo para los puertorriqueños desplazados, como lo he instado en numerosas ocasiones”.
Rubio había pedido extensiones al TSA anteriormente para las víctimas del huracán María en abril y en enero.
