Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody responded to reports that FEMA workers were told to skip over certain households in Florida based on political affiliation.

"These actions deny Florida its place in the federal system because Florida residents disproportionately support President Trump," the lawsuit says.

A group of Republican congressmen led by Rep. Vern Buchanan (R-FL) signed a letter Thursday demanding answers from FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell after it was reported that emergency responders were being told to “avoid” homes “advertising Trump.

Florida's attorney general said on Thursday she filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency for allegedly discriminating against hurricane victims who supported President-elect Donald Trump.

Florida sued the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) director and an employee who was fired for telling a survivor assistance team after Hurricane Milton not to visit homes displaying signs supporting President-elect Trump’s candidacy.

FEMA confirmed that it terminated an employee for telling workers in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton to “avoid homes advertising Trump.”
