Chairman Waxman:
“Another FEMA official wrote, the office of general counsel has advised ‘We do not do testing, because it would imply FEMA’s ownership of this issue.’ Early in the process, due to the perseverance of a pregnant mother with a four month old child, FEMA did test one occupied trailer. The results showed that their trailer had formaldehyde levels 75 times higher than the maximum workplace exposure levels recommended by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. The mother evacuated the trailer. FEMA then stopped testing other trailers.”
So, um, yeah. God forbid FEMA should want to take responsibility for the trailers they’re putting people in because their homes were destroyed…

Well it’s because of those damn trial lawyers! They are responsible for this!
This reminds me of that wingnut woman trying to ‘debate’ Randy Rhodes who put her fingers in her ears “blah, blah, blah, blah. I CAN’T HEAR YOU!” she said.
If we don’t see it, it’s not happening.
Asshats

I guess it explains why they want to deregulate everything…
