Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Budd promised to continue working with federal, state, and local officials to ensure FEMA Hurricane Helene recovery funds reached affected communities. The evidence shows same-term activity and concrete FEMA funding approvals, including over $38 million in reimbursements and more than $58.8 million in hazard mitigation funds, with Budd publicly tying these outcomes to continued coordination efforts. However, the promise is ongoing and process-oriented, and the evidence does not establish that the broader recovery funding need has been fully delivered or completed. This supports partial fulfillment with credit for continued effort, not full delivery.
