FEMA "not much interest in d offer 2 evacuate 2 mainland"We havent met 1 person whos not interestd






FEMA says there’s not much interest in the offer to evacuate hurricane Maria survivors out of Puerto Rico to the mainland. It’s part of TSA.
We haven’t met 1 person who’s not interested. On tonight’s @CBSEveningNews, @RepDarrenSoto says “I don't think they are really listening”

It takes some time to get a job and your first paycheck. And it costs transportation money to get to a job. I guess they want people to starve while they walk around looking for jobs.
