FEMA employees critical of Trump placed on leave
About two dozen FEMA employees have been placed on leave after they signed an open letter criticizing the Trump administration’s cuts and personnel decisions.

Amna Nawaz discussed the changes with Craig Fugate, the FEMA administrator from 2009 to 2017.
