Navajo president blasts feds after FEMA rejects request for disaster relief from EPA toxic spill


DENVER — Navajo Nation President Russell Begaye unloaded on the federal government Friday after the Federal Emergency Management Agency refused his request for disaster relief resulting from the Environmental Protection Agency’s toxic spill.

The notice came as the EPA began removing emergency water tanks last week provided to Navajo farmers for their livestock.

“We are extremely frustrated with the news that both FEMA and the U.S. EPA have declined our urgent requests to continue assistance to the Navajo Nation,” Mr. Begaye said in a late Friday statement.

Two sets of laws.
In your face.
And they don't even care that you see it or worry about what you will do about it.
Keep cheering.....
