Trump Plans to Phase Out FEMA After 2025 Hurricane Season

By GABRIELA AOUN ANGUEIRA

In a recent Oval Office appearance, President Donald Trump announced his intention to gradually reduce the role of the federal agency that responds to disasters, FEMA, after the 2025 hurricane season. This decision is expected to shift more responsibilities to states in managing the aftermath of climate-related disasters, which are becoming more frequent and costly.

While there has been bipartisan support for reforming FEMA, experts caution that completely dismantling the agency could create gaps in essential services and funding. Michael Coen, former FEMA chief of staff, expressed concerns about the implications of reducing federal support for disaster response.

Trump’s plan to distribute funds directly, bypassing FEMA programs, has raised questions about the logistics of such a shift and the impact it could have on states’ ability to handle disasters independently. Sara McTarnaghan from the Urban Institute highlighted the financial strain that states could face if federal support is diminished.

Changing the cost-sharing dynamics outlined in the Stafford Act would require congressional action, as it governs FEMA’s roles and responsibilities in disaster response. The potential consequences of reducing federal assistance could lead to states bearing a significant burden in recovery efforts.

Despite concerns raised by experts, Trump remains confident in states’ capabilities to manage disasters on their own. He emphasized the importance of governors taking charge of post-disaster recovery and suggested that states collaborate more effectively to address gaps left by FEMA’s potential phase-out.

As the 2025 hurricane season unfolds, the future of FEMA remains uncertain. Recent changes within the agency, including staff departures and operational adjustments, have raised questions about its ability to effectively respond to disasters. The FEMA review council, established by Trump, is expected to propose reforms in the coming months.

While the debate over FEMA’s future continues, the resilience of states in managing disasters independently remains a focal point of discussion. The potential implications of phasing out FEMA could have far-reaching consequences on disaster response and recovery efforts across the country.
