The dispute highlights complex payment agreements and frustrating bureaucracy that have kept these crews unpaid despite their tireless contributions to recovery efforts.

The crews, brought in by Next Era Communications, include contractors from across the U.S. Next Era’s owner, Miguel Burgos, revealed that his company is working with MasTec, which itself is a contractor for Spectrum.

SO...............You blame the "Gubmint" for all these checks not being written?

By the COMPANIES?

its not different because its indirect.

this is the worst argument ever and this is why Dems are losing.

I never claimed they were working FOR FEMA. You ARE JUST A MORON.

With you, every accusation truly is a confession. Especially this one.

If they weren’t working for FEMA, why would FEMA be responsible for paying them? And if you knew they weren’t working for FEMA, why would you even suggest that FEMA is responsible for paying their wages?

Only a MORON would post a thread about FEMA not paying workers, knowing that FEMA isn’t their employer and isn’t responsible for paying them.

YOU are that “moron” and every thread you post proves it.

fema is responsible for emergencies, and they aren't paying.

it's simple CCP troll.

Harris is circling the drain and sucks donkey dicks.

That was one, frantic, saliva slinging tirade, little lady. FEMA does not provide assistance to public, for-profit utilities. If you weren't so lazy and incompetent, you would have read that on their website.

FEMA is responsible for providing assistance to states experiencing disasters. The don't contract with workers, they contract with companies to supply workers. Their contractors pay their own workers.

These workers hadn't been paid by their employer for some time BEFORE the hurricane hit, and haven't been paid since. This is an issue of a dishonest/corrupt employer, not any kind of failure on the part of FEMA.

Harris is winning running away, because your criminally corrupt and incompetent candidate failed to adequately deal with any disaster he faced during his presidency. Not covid, not climate change, not racial unrest, and certainly not the economy.

Trump ran an inside straight in the EC in 2016, with an unpopular and compromised opponent. Since then, he's killed over a million Americans, crashed the economy, and divided Americans like no one has ever attempted, all in an effort to overthrow the Constitution and become the First American Dictator.

Only an enemy of the USA and the American people would ever advocate for re-electing Trump to any office - ever. You wouldn't hire him to work for you, or to babysit your children. Why would you give him the keys to the Treasury again, after billions are still unaccounted for from Trump's PPP loan program?

How much do you hate America and its people???????
