Trump delays disaster aid approval and more often denies requests from Democratic-led states

Since taking office, President Trump has approved approximately 65 major disaster declarations and denied over 25 requests, with approval times now averaging about six weeks—longer than previous presidents. There is a notable partisan disparity, with higher approval rates for requests from Republican-led states and those that voted for Trump in 2024, while Democratic states face more denials. The delays and politicization of disaster aid have impacted recovery efforts, with proposals being considered to reform FEMA and adjust criteria for disaster declarations.
